Yeah I could tell, I just don't think it fits. About the one my buddy had, to this day I still think it was the fastest street car I ever rode in. That thing would fly, but you know how memories are sometimes the've got a life of there own.

this is gonna be a cool build - i look forward to watcing it grow --\
about the scoop - i think if it were just the rounded version it would
probably look pretty cool.
 
I love gassers...........everybody loves gassers.:D That 54 will make a nice one and has the look already. But yeah, that scoop is out of place. Either punch a hole in the hood for a couple of four barrels to poke through, or build a scoop like on the Two Lane Blacktop 55, and the look will be complete.

Very good start. :)

Ahhhh.... the straight axle.... sweetness. Are you going to keep the rear up too?

The snorkel scoop is wrong.

No we're not gonna quit about the scoop. :D
 
i really don't know if everybody likes gassers or not......:confused:




........but i'd bet everyone on the RRR does!!!!:D:D



keep up the progress reports[;)
 
Love it!! The early Chevies are the best gassers.

I believe I'd radius the rear fenders and drop the tail to get the stance..

I have a 50 Chevy coupe at my Aunts house--Had it since 68. Huuuuuumm..

Keep it comming. Thanks for showing us.

Normally I would agree with PA but I think this model looks really good with the wheelwells left alone. But it would look better a little higher in the front.
