'55 Chevy LS1 / T56

[JMG-63]

My twisted vintage vibe for the interior. '65 Thunderbird seats, '65 Impala console, "69 Camaro steering wheel and a new Ididit Tilt column. Seams on dash were welded up, the glovebox and ash tray were welded together (not shown) and an aftermarket wiper system was installed under the dash which explain the hanging wires.

It will get an old school chrome Hurst handle once I zero in on the style and shape. Maybe '61 Impala handle.

The last picture is the car heading off for safety prior to the onslaught of the Holy Fire in Lake Elsinore this past August. That day was the first time I had it on the ground and rolling since it arrived at my house. Front end needs to come down a bit - remember its a vintage vibe ( gasser-ish style) hot rod not a ground scraping corner burner.



I had to throw the front fenders on it to get it out of my garage. The car was loaded with all the parts I had accumulated. Aligning sheetmetal is on the list of things to do.
