I haven't posted in a while but we just finished a pretty cool 55 chevy. It has a pretty cool story. The same guy (Greg Land) has owned this car since 1978. It was his first car, he went on his first date in it, he proposed to his wife in it-yes they are still married, it has been a huge part of his life, and now it is back on the road. Since his last name is Land, he came up with the name Outlandish for it.

It has a Morrison chassis, Ram-Jet 502, & 4L80. It is just a real simple clean elegant 55. The wheels are a design that Ben Hermance and I came up. The car went to the Tampa NSRA show last weekend where it won their tri-5 pick.

I had posted up the rendering of it some time ago and just thought I would share the finished product with everyone.

Thanks
Mike

Thanks

I saw this car in Tampa at a show a few weeks ago and all I can say is pictures do not do this car justice. It's got to be one of the baddest 55's I've ever seen! Great job Mike :thumbsup:
