1955 Chevrolet Cameo - 60's Day 2 Build

[BespokeHotRodsInc]

Hi guys, I thought I would finally get to posting up my WIP build of a 1955 Chevy Cameo. The theme is kind of a father and son working on upgrades in the 60's. They are Hot Rodding it a bit, while keeping it on the road. This is why I have weathered the chassis and all the bolt on bits will be clean. I will be using the 409W from the AMT 62 Impala kit for a bit more power. Let me know what you think ?

Like the stance and the 409 as it looks right now. A 409 story from the late '60's. The Chevy big block, 396 & 427, had become the popular choice by that time. A guy at the machine shop that many of us used was building an engine for his early '60's pickup and he was basing it on a 409 block with lots of head work and a mild cam. What he built was a high torque engine that could pull his race car and trailer along with his cab-over camper when he went to the races.

Great looking build going on - always thought the Cameo was a good looking pickup.
