Roadster Shop '57 Suburban

Just about ready to head off to upholstery, but I wanted to get a few shots up before it heads out. I'll try to add more build pics later in the week.

Our customer came to us with a very interesting project. He had a monster of a 1957 Suburban that he wanted to handle and perform like one of our Chevelles. It had to be slammed, on 22x12.5" and 20x9.5" wheels, 700 +HP, 14" Wilwood’s, and have 4 doors so his kids could easily get in and out of the back. (Burbans only came with 2 doors until the late 60's where they went to the 3 door)

(The truck is not completely done. There is a custom side molding that will run front to back ad help break up the "Billboard" look. And the usual after upholstery items that need to be addressed.)

Kenne Belle equipped LS7 that put out a little over 780 HP on the dyno. Backed by a Bowler 4L85E trans
