Fleek Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 Wow............. Don't know what else to say. Where did you see it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave@Moon Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 It looks as if the '57 Chevy fins were approximated at the rear as well. Did you happen to get a shot of the back end?BTW, for those who don't know, this car was originally either a Triumph Herald (4 cyl.) or Vitesse (6 cyl, a.k.a. Sports 6 in the USA).

Dandy Dave Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 Now that's a ripper.....LOL... When I grow up I want to be a 57 Chevy Convertible.... I think someone needs to adopt it. But the who isn't me. Dandy Dave! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Hugh32 Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Usually customizers section (remove a section like chopping a top)horizontally along the beltline, a very difficult time consuming job. This '57 Chevy hood was narrowed to fit the Triumph Herald body. Hopefully the '57 was a four door post that had been center punched. It probably drew a lot of attention at the local drive in diner back in the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
