57 Bel-Air Gasser Empty 57 Bel-Air Gasser

Post by Robert81 Thu 16 Jul 2009, 3:17 am

AMT's old tool 57 Bel-Air, mostly box stock.

For the body, I Cut the upper bumper from stock bumper, glued the stock grill bar to the body, and drilled out the "gun sights" on the hood.

The interior, got a dash mounted tachometer, a set of gauges, and a three spoke steering wheel.

The chassis was modified to move the front of the rear leave springs in board to clear the slicks, ladder bars from the 53 ford flip-nose pickup, and I used the raised front suspension position. The front wheels are Keystones, and the rears are stock steelies.

The engine is the optional 409 with the dual 4 barrel carburetor intake from the AMT 65 Chevelle wagon.
