That's a great looking old Chevy. My buddy "Hot Shot' Mims and I made a beach buggy out of one of these in about 1967. It had the 348 cubic inch motor, with 3 "duces" (carburators) and would do great wheelies. We shortened the frame about 3 ft, and built our own minimal body with one open seat on it. It was a ton of fun, and I wish that I had some photos to show. We should probably be dead, but somehow it didn't happen. We got a ticket with it for doing wheelies on Los Olas in Ft Lauderdale at spring break that year. The "Beach Boys" were playing on the beach for free when we were there.
Thanks for the great memory jog!
