Default 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.)
