Holy Cow....Lord of the Dance's new ride!!
« on: December 22, 2009 5:36 pm »
Well its been along time coming.  I thought I would post some pics of my new car.  It's a 1953 Chevy four door sedan.  Plans are still in my head for this one, especially since it will be my first actual project.

Way to go Blaine.  Jump in and get your hands dirty.  

I had a Bel Aire just like it in the mid 70's.  Almost perfect back then.  Took it in on a trade deal, drove it for a couple months and then sold it.

Get her running and have some fun.  :)

Well Im thinking that just getting her on the road is first! :)  Plans are for a small block and automatic to motivate.  I would like to do some mild custom treatments like nose, deck, and shave.  Probably add some more teeth to the grille.  Tom if the grille off your clip is good I may be interested.

Looks like a good solid car, 53-54's have always been some of the best looking cars in my opinion.

I have a '53 that the grill, the only thing good on it is the teeth if you need some.

AntiBling I just might need those teeth.  I've been looking around alot at pics of custom 53s, and I really like the look of em with added grille teeth.

Cool!  Now all you have to do is rent a spot at Driven and get some tools!

I don't know how I missed this, but congrats Blaine! Where'd you find it? There are a few of them up at my uncles. I'll have to watch to see what happens to them now.
