What fantastic cars! That one '55 had the most stunning blue color. And the metal or gold flake work on some of them was just beautiful. These are the kind of cars I think of when I think 'drag racing'. Or the '64 Thunderbolt, '64 Comet A/FX, '63 Z11 Impala, '63 Catalina Lightweight, etc...
That bright blue shoebox chevy at 8:45 is grabbin some gears and getting air on every gear change! Love it and this is how nostalgia gasser racing is done right. 3 pedals and balls out driving!
Ditch digger is a 55' chevy, note tail light, 56' is built shaped, also the front turn signal on the 55' is half a moon. Both years, same bodys. That kind of pastel green is a 61' chevy. If you care, 57'had the fin .
Another belting upload, this "type" of racing is the best, rpm, 4 speed, chassis action, as opposed to flat leaving, air shifted 2 speed auto junk, regards, UK
