The outside looks cool but the interior just doesn't fit the car imo.

Very good looking '55 Chevy and certainly not a low budget build. It takes a lot of effort to make these that nice. Painting the wheel centers to match the gray color adds a different look to these "shoeboxes".

Not too many for sure here yet.

Some of us are trying to change that. :)

Here's another one from SEMA I'm trying to get more pics and info on.

I thought it was the K&N car but saw a bunch of differences from what I had seen last year in the same link you provided.

So they made some changes too it for this year obviously.

Interior big time, rear trim used to have an orange stripe in it, added front fender Chevrolet script, painted wheels etc.

Now I'm wondering if its the K&N car this was their interior from a couple of years ago vs. the one in my OP.

I should have never sold mine. Now that I see all of these, it makes me want to get another one. It was a total piece of crap and had more rust and bondo than actual metal but I loved it.

Hay Skip I have 2 Gassers on the bottom of my website. I did not know you liked Gassers so much. They both have real history from SoCal from back in the sixties. The Rainbow flame one was originally own by John Kosmowski who now owns house of color.

Merry Christmas

Rodger,

Yes, I really like the gasser look, nothing like it. I'll take a look on your site at those.

Merry Christmas also to you and congratulations to you and your wife. :)

It's a little thing, but I like the small hood scoops (the more rounded ones) the gassers used to run.
Not sure how it would look on a pro-touring build.

Seems like the 18-20" combo is popular. I have a set of 18-20" Billet Specialties SLX37.

I love this one.
