This is a super cool 53 Chevrolet gasser. I bought it to get back into drag racing after about 45 years. I have the time slips to prove it runs consistent high 11s in the quarter mile. With the trans in drive and mufflers on!! Just punch it and go fast. Body is very nice. Paint is very nice. Chrome and stainless trim is all excellent. I do have the center section of the grille but no front bumper. The glass is all good except both door glasses are cracked. Interior is super nice. Headliner not installed, but I have a new one in the box that goes with it. Headlights, tail lights, dash lights, and brake lights work. No turn signals. No horn. Gauges all work. Tach works.
Mechanically: Engine is a built 406 small block that pumps out 542.5 HP and 541.8 Ft Lbs of torque, and I have the dino sheet to prove it. It is a full roller engine.

The thing on the bottom of the engine is an engine diaper to catch any oil and parts should the engine decide to go South.
