Steve’s 55

 

1955 Chevrolet 210 Sedan

Owners:  Steve &
Jean Rummel, Newcastle, WA

My son and I had long
been looking for a project car when we located this 1955 Two-Ten
at the 2001 Puyallup Goodguys Show. Although the vehicle’s restoration
was much further along than what we had in mind, we took an instant
liking to the color, its generally solid condition and profile (dropped
2″ spindles & rear springs, along with a set of 17″
American Racing polished rims). The car’s 327 engine and 4-speed
transmission convinced us this was the car we had to have.

Things done to our car:

  • 605 power steering
    box and front disc brake conversion

  • Ididit tilt steering
    column and Billet Specialist steering wheel

  • 4-speed Richmond
    transmission

  • Rewiring using
    Factory-Fit wiring system

  • Griffith aluminum
    radiator

  • Eclipse CD receiver
    and high performance speakers

  • Lots of new chrome

  • Tinted windows

  • Chevy gauges

  • Front and rear
    anti-sway bars
