Projects 1957 CHEVY SOUTHEAST GASSERS BUILD

No we wanna be fast haha.

 

nope didn't put in ford motor !! that's why he's still in d/G instead of A/G

 

looking good zak !! just pick at you a lil

 

Looks very cool Zak, now she sure is pretty,in that new dress.

 

Got headlights in it, and door handles on it last night, and got the tail lights, fin trim and rear bumper on tonight. Really like the way it's turning out. Can't wait for the 2017 season

 

Chrome is like buying jewelry. Expensive shiny stuff to dress the girl up.

 

You've got that right.

 

Looks awesome Zak can't wait to see it. 2017 is going to be a great season I can't wait either. I hope I don't have any setbacks on my motor so I can make the first race. We plan to make most of the races this year I just ordered a enclosed trailer with a/c and shower so the wife and I can stay at the tracks this year.

Got the back window in still have to put the weatherstripping in, and got most of the interior in it. Still have to put the front door panels and seats in it.

 

Awesome !!!

 

That Sir, is a thing of beauty.

 

TIME MACHINE!!! Just like back in the day that interior screams gas class.

 

Love the interior color

Are you going to trim out the windows with stock trim. Rules say they don't want screwed in windows without trim covering screws.

 

Just sent a friend request so I could see them

The interior is just fantastic! If I may ask, where did you get the material? Vinyl right?

 

Yeah it's green flake vinyl Mikey.

 

Yeah I'm going to glue the weatherstripping around the edge so it looks stock.

 

Thanks loudbang, I'm really pleased with how it turned out!

 

Zak, I see the 427 on your car, are you going to run in C/G or D/G? What is the weight to cube inches for your 55? Do they use actual weight? I hope to run in D/G but with an all steel car and sbc, I doubt I'll be competitive. The 327 in my car was purchased new as a service block in the 60's and installed in the gasser immediately, so I will not swap that out.

 

Yes they use actual weight and ci if you run faster than the weight break. I'll be in C gas this year I'm changing up a few things, I hope to be pretty competitive.

 

In any round of the SEG if you run faster than a 5.75 in A, or 6.50 in C, or a 7.25 in D you have to weigh. But as long as you're slower than that you don't have to

 

Great looking '57 and the Lettering is first class. I also do Lettering here in So. Cal

Thanks!

 

Other than the seats, we've got the interior done! Or as Quain said, the green guts is in it. Outside door handles are on too. All that's left is finishing putting the windows in, and then swapping the shifter, and doing some motor work. Looking to make some more power for C Gas this season!

 

Looks great Zak.Snowman

 

Got my green windows in, and rolled it outside for some better pictures. Almost ready for the 2017 season!

 

Lookin great!

 

Thanks
