Chevy59.net: Cuban Wings

http://www.chevy59.net/2012/06/cuban-wings.html

1959 Chevrolet and Classic Car Blog. Thursday, June 14, 2012. Originally uploaded by kashoff. I sometimes think these old American cars on the streets of Havana Cuba will never die. Mechanics are managing to keep them all alive with a blend of ingenuity available parts. Sometimes these cars end up with carburetors of Soviet trucks, and hydraulic brakes are pumped full of home-brew brake fluid. Nothing short of amazing that they are on the road after five decades of US Embargo. Follow us on Twitter.

Chevy59.net: 307 Chevy - The Forgotten Small Block

http://www.chevy59.net/2012/02/307-chevy-forgotten-small-block.html

1959 Chevrolet and Classic Car Blog. Wednesday, February 8, 2012. 307 Chevy - The Forgotten Small Block. Photo courtesy of Dive Shop Dave. What's the first Small Block Chevy. Size that pops into your head? The 307, aka "wheezer," "boat anchor" "emissions motor.". Employing minimal maintenance - until the odometer read 175,000 miles; a traffic accident totaled the car, which means we would never get to know just how many miles it would go. When I was in high school this engine was called a "boat anchor" b...

1959 Chevrolet and Classic Car Blog. Saturday, November 19, 2011. Saturday Evening Post ad Sept. 12, 1959. Back when International made a full line of trucks, nothing could stop a Cornbinder. These tough rigs would run long after their workdays were done. I owned a `59 A-100. In the early 1990s that was completely reliable until an overloaded bed of firewood snapped an axle in a rough snowy mountain pass. I miss that old International even today. Thanks to Jana Robertson.

1959 Chevrolet and Classic Car Blog. Thursday, September 22, 2011. 1964 Thunderbirds are slick enough when they're stock. But check out what happens when an enterprising rodder streamlines one! This Kentucky car was photographed by Geezer94. At the Stephens Pipe and Steel car show in 2010. I especially like the bubble top and fins. They emphasize the already cool lines of the Sixties Thunderbird. View the entire slideshow from the car show here. Thanks to Geezer94 for these pix! Links to this post. Get C...

1959 Chevrolet and Classic Car Blog. Sunday, October 9, 2011. For Sale at The Swap Meet. Originally uploaded by KDavidClark. Typically I prefer taking pictures of cars with their hoods down, but when it comes to `59 Impalas at shows it's pretty hard to get them. In fact, I had to stand nearly five minutes to get a picture of this car without any people. It attracted them like crazy. I'm good with that, especially after standing as long as I did!
