SUPER CHEVY WEB WRITE UP Build History

One morning Previous owner Ron had the wild hair to cut the top off the '57, so with a reciprocating saw in one hand and a plasma cutter in the other he performed impulsive surgery that would no doubt change the '57 forever. After the cutting was done Ron realized that he was in a little over his head and would soon be seeking the assistance of a pro-builder in Southern California. He took the '57 to Pro Design, in Santa Ana, after a friend had highly recommended their work. After receiving the freshly chopped '57, Ron and the guys at Pro Design hammered out a plan of attack that would eventually turn a docile '57 Chevy into the slammed, blown bad boy that it is today.

The first steps to the project were separating the body and the frame. After the frame was stripped and prepped for the Lincoln rearend, the stock front suspension was upgraded with tubular A-arms and Heidt's dropped spindles. With the suspension almost complete, a set of Baer 13-inch brakes were installed at all four corners to complement the 6-71 blown mouse motor that was in the works. After the rolling frame was complete, the carcass was dropped back on the chassis and sent to Doug at Star Side Design in Riverside, California, for finishing bodywork and paint. Following the sheet metal fitment the body was covered in House of Color True Blue Pearl and then flamed with a different shade of candy pearl basecoat. After the clear had been applied the finish was sanded smooth and buffed to a high-gloss shine.

As the project was nearing reassembly, Pro Design and Ron began assembling the body and tweaking the finishing touches. With the '57 90 percent complete, the interior was covered with Mercedes leather by the experts at Bill's Auto Upholstery in Brea, California. With Ron's drop top missing only the motor and trans and some wiring, Ron brought his baby back to his garage to make it driveable. With the powerplant installed, Ron realized he had one more thing missing; a kickin' sound system which would soon be provided by Clarion Electronics. In fact, those of you who went to the 2003 Las Vegas Consumer Electronics Show may have seen Ron's roadster in the Clarion booth. But even if you didn't, don't feel bad, seeing a Tri-Five this cool in person might be painful, only because it lives in Ron's garage and not our own. If there's one thought that we were left with, it's the thought that "different" can definitely work, even with cars as commonly built as '55-57 Chevys.
