1957 CHEVROLET 150 CUSTOM WAGON

Details

This custom 1957 Chevrolet 150 wagon underwent a 12-year no-expense-spared restoration. It is powered by a new 6.0-liter V8 engine topped with fuel injection with COMP Cams camshafts and valve springs, mated to a rebuilt T56 6-speed manual transmission with Z06 internals. The exhaust system is custom stainless with long-tube headers and is cooled by an aluminum radiator. The fluids of the vehicle have also been freshly serviced. The front suspension is built with CPP tubular front suspension on

a factory California chassis that is powder-coated. It includes a Speedway Engineering front sway bar with splined connecting links. The rear suspension is built with an Art Morrison triangulated 4-link rear suspension with Strange coilovers and a Moser Ford 9-inch rear differential with 3.73 gears, as well as a custom chromoly driveshaft delivering 450hp. It has a Borgeson Delphi 600 power steering box, and stopping power comes from C6 front brakes and Wilwood 4-piston in the rear with a Wilwood master cylinder. The rear side windows roll down with custom-made channels, motors and regulators, and the glass is all factory tinted. The undercarriage, including fender wells, rear differential, radiator support and suspension components are powder-coated, and the floor pan is a full one-piece. It is outfitted with newly purchased taillights. The Center Line wheels are wrapped in new Hankook tires. The interior is custom-built by Ciadella Interiors in Arizona and includes a custom center console finished in red. The floors are covered in Dynamat with Mercedes carpeting and the front seats are out of an Impala. The dashboard is smooth and fully electronic with a Flaming River steering column and a classic instrument gauge cluster. The interior also has a Vintage Air system and a stereo made by Kenwood, with Apple CarPlay. This vehicle was featured in Super Chevy magazine.
