That 59 Impala shorty conversion just blows my mind. It is very well executed in its presentation. For those that do not know, that 59 is the back half of a four door sedan. Very very well done. Thanks for sharing.

The story of the car was actually covered in the local paper - the owner has a big binder of the work that went into this car.

I have posted pictures of the car before but this Sunday was the first time I could get a hood up shot-

Glad you enjoyed the pictures

With the upgrades it is sooooo nice to drive !! (tall ball joints, poly bushing, quick ratio box, sway bars)

Just need to learn how to adjust the governor and tweak the shift points.

Shift points?

Third pedal. Full "thrattle", never let up, that's the shift point!
