55 Chevy Streetfighter Color Suggestions

Besides black, I love medium blue and white on 55s. Dust would still show though.

Thanks to all you guys who helped with info, ideas and idle chatter just to liven things up but the economy crossed with family health issues out of my control is going to ground this project before it even leaves the launch pad. Dad (aka Jim or The Old Guy) got tagged with prostate cancer a few weeks ago. So he’s going to be little help in his own shop for the next 3-4 months so I’m going to pick up the slack to help him out ad keep the shop up and running.

Part 2, with his health condition I want to see his 57 Hardtop, Project Meteor, get finished. Jim wanted to build a TT LQ motor but that out of the questions now. Our shop has had a few customer pull projects due to the economy and business has slowed down in the chassis market as well. A 22 year old punk kid like myself would have never gotten to build a car like my Black Widow without his help and sacrifices that at that time I didn’t understand. So I’m giving him the LS7 I was going to use on my Street Fighter 55 for the Meteor. I figure I got it with the money I got from the Widow, he helped me build the Widow so it rightfully his anyway. I’ll get to drive the 600hp monster 57 now and then so it’s not all bad. We need to lean up around here to get through this so I’ll be taking charge of the 57 truck project and finishing up its chassis development to get that online so that’s going to keep me busy on this end as well.

Thanks Again Guys
Russell

Sorry to here the diagnosis on your dad; I'll keep him in my prayers.

Meteor sounds like a cool distraction to keep you from dwelling on the negative. Looking forward to hearing about both happy outcomes.
