57 chevy truck chase scene

Heres a little proof that an old truck is drivable without a camaro clip!! This really makes me want to go fire my 56 up and drive the hell out of it.

Good god..... My '57 is pretty stock as that one is, and I wouldn't dare push it like that, that must have been HAIRY even for a stunt driver!

That truck must have had a V8 in it because my I6 would have puked a rod out the side of the block driving it like that.

Re: 57 chevy truck chase scene

no seatbelts, just put your feet on the dash and hold on to the vent window

Re: 57 chevy truck chase scene

that's freakin' awesome.. I haven't driven mine since 1997.

I had to go out to the garage and touch it. Sitting there in pieces waiting for me to finish it.

They don't make 'em like that anymore.

Re: 57 chevy truck chase scene

Yeah, it would definately be scary as hell to ride in a stocker bieng driven like that. I definately dont think it drove like a c-5 corvette, but it did drive better than most would think. The front hood ornament had a V on it so I would assume that the truck if it were original had the 283 v8. It definately had the stock I beam; that is very noticable in many shots.
