In 1971 I traded my 55 Chevy<\/a> for a 57 Chevy and I believe there was less body work to complete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I kept the motor and transmission from the 55 Chevy and put it in the 57 Chevy. Mike Kao<\/a> had just put new front end and brakes all around so the suspension was an even trade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My first 67 Camaro <\/a>came with a full synchro 3 speed and I found a floor shifter so I had a 3 speed on the floor and not on the steering column. I shakeled up the back and slipped the tires from my Camaro for the picture. It was a good looking 57 Chevy. I got the spray gun out and painted it a dark blue metallic. I was still drawn to the 67 Camaro<\/a> so I put the 57 Chevy up for sale. The dark picture was taken in Coram at the new owners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another valuable classic sold!!!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
