Man , this is a rare '57 Chevy option here..

"WOOD" you believe I read all 5 pages of this crap! haha!

 

I think I have seen the pic or one like it. The question becomes is that the Stanley Steamer or Oakland oprtion? Better not take that bugger to the great north west, when you fire it you'll have every tree hugger in the vacinity on you like stink on tuna.

Uh how old is this thread, have I already posted?

 

I think I saw this car at the corner of Oak and Elm Streets and was looking to branch out.

 

forest induction

 

Yeah, but with a little work, it could go straight as a rail.
It just needs some hickory hackery, Doc.

 

I am going out on a limb to say we havent heard the last of this one yet.

 

i'll get to restoring that one too some day

do not leave lug nuts on the ground here's proof

did ya find the hood ?

 

Wood you guys please leaf this thread alone and branch out onto something more productive.

 

I'm stumped.

 

I'll bet it's got "owl" induction......

 

I knew there were a lot of 57's out there, but I didn't know they grew on trees!

 

You'll Have that.

 

Probably not to fast though ...Got more "BARK" than it has "BITE".

 

its that new 2-eighty-tree

 

Pleeeeese stop, we have been punn-ished enough!

 

That makes me pine for my younger days.

 

Didn't Chevy stop using real wood in their cars in the 1940's?

 

It's not a V-8. It's a Stave bolt with a Split manifold.
That Mill runs on Grain alcohol too.
Definitely scraping the bottom of the Barrel now.

 

Wow, that's got one of those ultra-rare "split-log" intakes!

 

You know the old hot rodders motto... "If two's good, three's better!"

 

Don't you mean "If two's good, tree's better!"

Doc.

 

I wonder if there is any PINE-striping around the LEAFING on that '57? I'm a SAP for topics like this.

 

HEY DOC, here's one just for you!


Sorry we're hijacking this important tech thread...

 

used to be a corvair in a junk yard in tonica il. with that same engine option

 

Oh quit your barking!

 

Who's the sap who started this thread??



j/k

 

"knot stock"....

 

We may be "branching" out a bit, but nobody's gonna "leave" this one alone...

 

Can a car get "Dutch Elm Disease"????????
