1956 Chevrolet - Don Jackson - Ray Farhner

This 1956 Chevrolet " 210" owned by Don Jackson (Kansas City - Missouri)

Body modifications made by Ray Farhner: lowered 6 inches via dea-arcghed springs, Headlights are 1958 Lincoln Continental with frenched lucas lenses.

The front end was given the radical treatment with '58 Ford grill mesh, '59 Cadillac teeth and custom made nerf bars.

Fenders are rolled under ans side trim came from '58 Impala, The front bumper was completely hand made while the rear fenders were rolled under and given fins.


A roll pan in the back and '60 Olds grille guards on the bumper add up to an effective rear end treatment.

Then, when you throw in the 1959 Cadillac tail lights that were frenched and tunneled two inches, you have something drastically different.

And when you add a heeded and frenched lisence plate houssing, you're grasping for breast. The finish is 40 cost of Mother of Pearl.

The hood conceals a 1960 Corvette bored out to four inches, with full isky cam, Jahn's pistons, a '62 Edelbrock manifold and six Stromberg 97's.

Heads were ported and polished and valves lightened. There is also a Scheifer 11-inch flywheel, clutch and pressure plate assembly and Hedman competition headers.Thhe Mallory has been reworked.

Bearing the credit line of Tony's Upholstery Shop, DeSoto, Kansas, the red and white rolled naugahyde make up a near unbeatable comb.
