  • This is a brief introduction to The 55.
    Where I found it.
    What it looked like when I got it.
    And the first few upgrades.
    Now we're at Orange County Hotrods and I'm gonna take you through what it takes to install a Roadster Shop SPEC chassis in a 1955 Chevy 210 Handyman Station-Wagon.
    Let me know if you have any questions on the build.

    I thought you were sporting a stock '55, now you've turned it into a pro stock drag car with a big gas tank. It's probably my fault for not asking to start with. Happy Trails.

    I wouldn't say that's taking it up a notch. That's pretty much taking it to the moon. That things gonna be awesome Jeff. Did you get monotized yet? I've been pulling for you and had some of my subscribers check out your channel. Us Tri 5 Chevy guys gotta stick together. Lol. I'm hoping to finish my 55 for Starbirds show in Tulsa. Barely over a month from now. I keep running into snags with my Gopro and car. Hard to upload a video when camera is messing up my videos.
