1957 Chevrolet 150 Gasser

INTRODUCTION: Here's an old school hot rod with the gasser look! It's not a race car, it's a cruiser with air conditioning.

EXTERIOR: It certainly has a look! It's reminiscent of the old school gassers where they lifted the front end to transfer the weight to the rear tires. Seeing those headers with dumps in the wheel well is pretty cool too. The body on this car is very straight, clean and fits nicely. The doors just click shut. It's painted colonial cream and has a beautiful finish, there are only minor flaws if you look for them. Most of the chrome has been replaced, it shines bright. All new smoked glass was installed. The weatherstrips were replaced. It's rolling on vintage looking 15 inch American Racing Torque Thrust wheels in front with painted steelies in back wrapped in drag tires.

INTERIOR: The custom upholstered interior has a matching pattern on the seats and door panels. The headliner and carpet have been replaced too. The metal trim and dash are painted nice. It has a great looking set of modern gauges including a tachometer. It has heater controls, radio and clock delete. The automatic shifter on the floor looks like a stick shift, it's actually a Locar automatic shifter. Seat belts were added in front. A cushion grip wheel is mounted to a tilt column.

ENGINE COMPARTMENT: That's a 383 stroker motor with Edelbrock intake and carb, HEI ignition and a set of custom made headers. You wouldn't expect to see air conditioning but this does have a modern a/c and heat system. An upgraded aluminum radiator and big electric fan keep the motor cool too. It's dressed up with aluminum pulleys, chrome alternator, valve covers and air cleaner. Upgraded with a dual reservoir master cylinder for safety.

TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Under the trunk lid was painted nicely and has new weatherstrip. Inside is solid with a gray speckle finish paint and reproduction mat. It has a new rim and tire for a spare. The battery has been relocated to the trunk.

UNDERSIDE: Well, let's start with the gasser front end. It has a new frame clip, parallel leaf springs and a drop tubular axle. In back it has leaf springs and gas shocks. The custom dual exhaust has a crossover pipe and stainless Magnaflow mufflers. The fuel tank has been replaced. It features disc brakes in the front. Looking up at the motor it is clean Chevy Orange with a high torque starter. That's a Turbo 350 automatic and the rebuilt driveshaft goes back to 10 bolt rear end. The floors appear to be solid.

SERVICE: We take pride in our cars and reputation. Therefore, we built a 2 million dollar, 10,000 square ft service center, and hired a team of technicians to service the essentials on every car we sell.

CONCLUSION: Too cool for school! Roll your cigarettes up in your T-shirt sleeve, grease your hair and go for a cruise back in time!
