Vehicle Story
Jeff has owned the '59 for roughly 40 years, it's always been used as a shop truck, it still is really despite handling like a new sports car. The truck is definitely a driver with currently over 18,000 miles on the new drivetrain. A few years ago we disassembled it and started cutting it up to accommodate a Roadster Shop chassis equipped with C5 Corvette spindles, JRI coilovers, and 14-inch. BAER Brakes. The drivetrain consists of a 5.3L LS equipped with our custom machined intake manifold with Borla's Eight Stack fuel injection, 4L60E Transmission, and a Tiger quick-change rearend. Greening one-off machined wheels are 19's and 20's wrapped in Perelli rubber.
