Always a fan of the ’55 Chevy, Ray Verna decided he needed to finally get his hands on one now that he is retired and has time to play. The ideal ’55 210 post showed up at the Pleasanton, California, Goodguys show, and he snatched it up. The red and black paint was perfect, but Ray wanted more muscle, so he and his buddies yanked the driveline in favor of a 383ci small-block with a Tremec five-speed, backed by a Currie 9-inch. “I didn’t know where to stop,” Ray says. “It was snowballing.” Next up came the chassis with 2-inch drop spindles, cut springs, a Flaming River rack-and-pinion, and a four-link rear with QA1 coilovers. It must be a blast to drive now since Ray says the dual-Edelbrock—carb’d 383 reminds him of the ’66 426 Hemi Plymouth he had back in high school. His favorite touches are the smooth front bumper and the Corvette grille. We have to agree with you there Ray; it’s a great look on a ’55.

I, really enjoyed reading about all the things done, and installed on this fine car, but I'm not much of a mechanic, nor do I know the exact lingo for everything stated here. The 55 looks great, even with the Corvette grill. I'd love to add this to my computer for the background wallpaper, but the resolution is so small for my 1600 x 900 screen, it comes off fuzzy or pixled-out with tiny squares; not good. Another thing, why is this not in the automobile section with all of the other cars and hot rods? It's in the buddy/pals section with dogs and cats........
