She has a built 350/4 speed/ posi w/3:55



Hood is off at the paint and bodyshop to fix a dent I put in it.



She is going to get disc brakes and a 2 inch lowering in the next month or so.

Joe,



The 57 looks GREAT! If I had to guess I`d say that thing has got a few layers of #21 on it. :D



With the disc conversion, are you going to be swapping the wheels as well? If you are I think that thing would look SICK with some nice top shelf billet. :D

Looks great! 2" lower and a disc conversion will be great for that car. Anythought on going with some bigger billet wheels? Some chrome Thrust style wheels would look awesome!

No billit for me , no thanks!



These wheels were put on the car in 1972. They were some of the first centerline aluminum wheel syou could get back then.



I like them because they look "old school" and don`t look like the wheels EVERYBODY has.



The 57 was orig. customized in the early 70s. I want to keep that early 70 flavor.



We will see how they look when the car is lowered.

No billit for me , no thanks!......Good call on keeping those wheels..... I also like the "old school" look. I think the two door post and 210 trim package also adds to that look. The car looks very good, I love how straight the sheet metal is along the sides.... that`s an area that is often overlooked by some body shops.
