You have 55 Chevy, a truck, and you live in the best state in the union

If payed more than 500.00 dollars,you payed too much, ITS ACHOP TOP, lol thanks BigAl merry 55 California.

Lying deep in the East Texas Piney Woods rested a legend of a Racecar. Some would call it wasted, some would call it sketchy, Some would call is a loss cause... But not Ryan of Street Car Chronicles. Armed with a Box of Wine and a Silver Tongue Ryan convinced his Wife that this was the right thing to do, not only for him, the Family, but for the People Of Texas. Thank You Street Car Chronicle's Wife, You have warmed the hearts of all Texans and given hope to other Husbands that want to make piss poor decisions like Ryan but are to afraid to ask their wives.......

I really appreciate the period-ish refurbishment of these old school race cars. Keep the nostalgia but the right combo of upgrades! …and a collaboration with Chad is a total WIN FOR US! Turns out I got some floor fixin’ in my future as well. 😅

Well the curse of graveyard shifts. I’ll be working during the premiere. Can’t wait to watch this Ryan! 55 Chevy, 283, manual transmission… that’s what my dad ran in high school!

Best of luck with your projects...I was lucky to grow up in Danta Rosa CA and all the trifives I've owned were rust free. Owned a 57 10:90 bracket racer..a couple of 12 second cars..sold my black 57 Nomad with like new original upolstry to a client and friend and made the down payment on a new home in Las Vegas. Still have a 56 150 utility I found at a neighbors in Sebastopol...delivery vehicle for Pacific Bell Telephone and bought at auction by the shop that serviced it until 1966...they replaced the six with a 283"...sitting in my garage now with a L-78 BBC...12 bolt posi and Tremec six speed..painted black with blue flames and original five spoke mags. Package area is carpeted with faux upolstry to match front seat.

Such a great find. I would have dragged it home to. I'm sure it has some cool history. Nothing like a 55 chevy have fun with it glad you are going to save it. Thanks for sharing👍

this 55 is the perfect project for a business coupe gasser. if you want the specs,reach out.

It probably had a carburetor sitting under a hollowed-out blower case. That was a trick some years ago. Looks like holes on the plate to mount a carb!😁

That 55 needs a 348 or 409 with Hilborn 8 Stack injection sticking out the hood and some 15" x 4" Aluminum slots on the front!!!

We must be related...I have the talking affliction also hahaha....If Im not taking for hours, Im bumping into people I know 100s of miles from home...my partner used to pitch a fit...lol...how many people do I know? A few

My wife calls my 1956 chev 2 dr Wagon, my new Girl Friend . I just tell her , I ain’t drinkin ,Smokin or chasin Woman , jut Hot Rodding , baby can I have some money ! I had mine a yr ago. Rockers and floors are in the car port . Ready to start resto mod

Right ...now Ive watched it all...do NOT paint it...lol...so cool...needs a lot of work but its so damned cool its worth every minute...Good buy and something to keep you out of trouble for a while....Mrs Chronicles has the makings of a KZfaq star...shes the sensible one in the team hahaha Cant wait to see this grow

What a bad ass car! I might have seen that car run at Green Valley, that was the track back in the day. Looking forward to all the stuff you do to it. I'm sure Jake would love to see his truck running soon! Thanks for sharing all the good stuff.

This is going to be a good project. Can't wait to see what you do with it. I'm also waiting to see how your son's truck turns out. 👍

How are your fabricating skills ? I have seen worse & I suggest you order a Lutty's book they should have every panel you need .Good luck brother Hope you post the build.🤔😄

Congratulations ! ! ! What a SWEET ride ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

Would be cool to put a loud gear drive so you get the blower type sound and use the empty blower housing just for looks kind of like they did with the fast and furious charger and the mad max car in the movies.

Yee doggie! That's an awesome find brother, glad I stumbled on your channel, I love it! Very entertaining 👏 Aloha

Looks a lot like my neighborhood when I lived in Texas Right down to the old car on a trailer in the driveway. Lol Cool project

The chrome if it’s above the side windows, is indicative of a bel air car. Best way to know is vin tag decoding. A? B? C?

Awesome ! This is going to be a cool build 😎.... new subscriber !

That blower would be great for garage decor, now to talk Mrs. Street Car Crhonicles into the van

I totally understand you, I was the same way same feelings but last week i drove 10 hours and got me my 55.

Where are we with the old racer today! Haven’t seen it for a while!

Ok a chop top 55 , all out race car, I’m looking for a non chop top 55 , if you find one, bell air, 2 or 4 door, thanks BigAl California merry

Fix the rust with reproduction panels. Then it will be cool as F.

Great Luck Sir It looks great make it run

Very cool 55!!!!

Holy crap that's rough but it's a 55 so it's cool. My 55 had angle iron for rockers no floor braces floor halves half ass installed etc. You put new rockers and floors with braces etc it'll make a big difference. The cut roof kinda blows but there's still parts cars out there you can get that stuff and fix it relatively cheap. New parts are on another planet right now which sucks. That car is a little beyond what I'd be wanting to take on it'll be interesting to see what you do with it.

Needs a straight axle up front

i mean an actual business cpe,they did not make in 55 but did in 54.check out the 54 model

Blower intake is from dyers machine shop Gary dyer made what you gave

Awesome 👊🤘

Love me some Gassers. We have 2 at the ranch.

Looks to be a Belair. The 210's didn't have trim on the front of the doors. Nice project.

I think it's love discuss while in garage. Go Sam Houston

Awesome video brother

Send it over to Duddie. Just feed him tacos he can build anything ( DW Dodge whisper where are you)

This needs my Bolt-in Straight Axle kit.

love the car nice ihave the gutts foe the blower if you want the only thing is you will have to come get them again nice car

I dig your trailer, Bud !! What brand name is and where are they located ?? Tks, Ed/A

All I have to say, Two Lane Black Top!!!!!!

Was going good till you said the top had been chopped. A little to much work for me.

Roof is chopped how many inches?

I think she likes it

Your family is correct.. you talk Waaayyy too much !!

A lot of video wasted on driving there.

Bad language and will get you no money buddy

Thanks for the video the 55 is awesome you know you could always put that intake and blower housing on there and make a front block off plate and run some 600 four barrels it would make for interesting performance out bet that's cool man I can't build cars anymore to go racing but I can really enjoy this thanks a lot this is cool and just for fun watch Cold War Motors Hillbillies at their best lot of old junk cool stuff have a great day
