This is my orange 1959 Chevy pickup, which I have had for over 20
years.
As you can see, it has a long Fleetside bed. Under the hood is the 396
my brother and I built back in high school! I rebuilt the engine a few
years ago. Also has a switch pitch TH400, and a 3.54 posi Dana 60
rearend.
I've gotten a 14.22 second ET out of it on the dragstrip.
The wheels are Shelby "CAL 500", and seem to be made just to fit this
truck.
In 2005 I had an untimely meeting with the back of a minivan...and now
the truck is undergoing some collision repair, as well as some other
updates. I'm going to put in a 454, probably rewire the truck,
and probably repaint the whole thing.
