at least you took the safe route and rode in the 55 instead of the death trap next to it to the left

Whats wrong with the one on the left??? If I had a chance to ride in that one I would!!!!! I see nothing wrong with the other car and actually wouldn't mind owning it or one like it... Mark

I can imagine what I would feel like after a ride in that.

Tell us more about the history of the car at Alton. We spent a LOT of time there in the mid/late '60s.

'55 (but then, so is the Chevy II)

I dont know that much on its history, but its owner is on this site, maybe he will shed so light on this subject...

C'mon, Dennis,you've got enough stock stuff, let's 'nose-bleed' your '57!

Thats a great looking 57 chevy, would be nice to see more pictures of that car.
The nova is a good looking car and the website thats shows progress pictures is nice to read and look at, that must have been fun riding in that 55.

More pictures, look at the taylor brothers car, the car is split down the middle, the paint scheme changes from drivers side to passenger side, the colors are reversed.
