Thanks.


it's actually a '57 body and dash on a C5 vette roller. Inside it's got custom interior with 4 bucket seats, nice center console, stereo etc... But the dash is full 57 chevy painted to match the car. All drive train, electronics, suspension is from a C5, power windows, AC, etc... It's really a daily driver car that looks like a show queen. The front end has been cleaned up quite a bit. Took all the chrome bullets off of the bumper and the hood. Some of the chrome has been traded out with black; the bits that everyone expects to chrome are still chrome. But the other bits that make that subtle difference have been blacked out. Every year it goes on a FL to MI road trip for the Woodward Cruise, she's no garage queen.






She isn't small either!! haha
