Mike, are you reacting to the first picture Steve put up?

It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

Dave, you gonna put her in the car with you for ballast? Gauranteed the car won't get airborne with that load on...
Ahem! Getting back to the matters at hand, for a Bonneville speed run, isn't a longer wheelbase desirable?Jim

Yeah, but the '57 is so long (115") it's just too much!!! I can make the front end work fine with a 108" to 110" wheelbase. Besides the car isn't just for B-Ville, it's gotta be streetable, and will probably hit the dragstrip a couple times, and maybe the Texas Mile! Main reason was I just wanted to get the distance between wheels down a bit to keep from having to add extra crossmembers (weight), and be able to do something with those oversize air grabbing wheel wells!!!!! Now to get the rear wheel opening to be complimentary to the fronts, some ideas there too that I'm still kickin' around......
As for Uncle Bob's Bevy of Beauties, sometimes you do have to add ballast to make class!!!!! That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it!!!!!

When one finds themself in a hole. The first thing you do is STOP DIGGING!!
So back to custom 57 chebbies! Actually, Dave. You mentioned a few weeks ago that there once was a plan underway to have a get together event.. perhaps this car could be that impetus? Sounds like a few guys want to go as it is.... maybe more would like to meet in Bonneville??

I've never been and like a lot of folks, it's on the bucket list! But I watched the movie "The worlds Fastest Indian" recently and now I am intrigued! Originally Posted by Dave Severson

On second thought, B-Ville probably wouldn't be my choice for a CHR get together.... Not much to do other then race!!!! Shade is at a premium, and the salt is HOT!!!! Someplace a bit more centralized and a bit more conducive to lounging around and showing cars might be a better choice for a locale! A nice area with a drag strip and a road course nearby would be a blast, and probably something more centrally located in the country----like maybe Topeka????Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!
