In my opinion, it is to big to be a "gasser". But it would be cool done in 60's drag race trim.... for a lower class, like "stock eliminator"
 
I've seen a couple done as gassers they actually look pretty good, the wheelwells already look forward a little. Do you know the OLD RELIABLE car of Bill Grumpy Jenkins? Early factory rac car, thats about what you're talking about too isn't it?
 
yep

the old reliable look think would be good imalso thinking of a #3 junior johnson hollyfarms i dont have any chrome for it at all i need some stuff can you help ??? thanks
 
yo you have to have the hat to go with the car......

I agree it's not quite the right body style for a gasser, but a Super Stocker would be ideal. I had a 64 years ago, white like yours. Ran American 5 spokes on it with 11 inch M&H slicks and a little higher in the front. It looked bad.......actually looked faster than it really was. :eek::)

What's with the wheelbase on yours? It looks slightly shifted forward front and rear. Or is that just camera angle? In any event nice start for a project.
