1954 Patina Chevy Overview (What all is done to it)

[@rustloversgarage]

I love the '54 Buddy! I just picked up a '49 myself and much like yours, it has had a lot already done to to. I am building a channel around it along with some other old rusty projects, so stop by when you can. Great channel!!!!

[@TWAMotorsports]

Thank you. Sounds like a great build. I actually just sold mine

[@codya8684]

Thanks travis, i was hoping you would catch my comment, car is awesome, i wouldnt change anything on it, good drivetrain, chassis, and the og look inside and out, buddy of mine has a 50s 210 but a 4 door, ever since he got his, ive started to really like this era of cars/trucks

[@TWAMotorsports]

You're welcome. Thanks for the idea sir

[@James-sir]

I used to be in love with the camaro and trans am but as I’ve gotten older those are now my favorite cars ever they’re gorgeous the body looks so good low and I’m also a fan of the older ones from the late 40’s

[@TWAMotorsports]

I like too many things. The old cars just have that style

[@larrydeaton5452]

Hey Travis, I love to see the different set ups on the suspensions and engines. The 54 is a sweet ride. The riddlers were a great choice. I really like the patina vehicles that were originally light blue. They look good! Thanks for the update.

[@TWAMotorsports]

Thank you Larry. Crazy amount of work went into this thing

[@THATMOFODIRT]

The patina really gives the car character.

[@TWAMotorsports]

I agree

[@bobgarnica6227]

Loved it! When it gets warmer, do a drive video. Thank you

[@TWAMotorsports]

Thank you. Will do

[@keilylmm6377]

Good Monday evening my friend. That antique car is pretty cool.. have a professional window business remove the windshield and also install it as well. I had a professional window company remove mine cause my 94 trans am windshield had some fine scratches on it. When they removed the glass the windshield cracked at the lower corner cause of the age of my car... After I get my 94 trans am repainted they will install a brand new windshield back in it...

[@clark5242]

Great build. I was interested in the coil over setup. I also have a 54. I kept it as a patina rod for about 5 years and now I am doing body work so I can paint it. I lowered mine with blocks and it hit frame way too much. I put air shocks on it to stiffen it up, but that coil over setup looks nice.

[@TWAMotorsports]

Thank you. Really don't have anything on the car being built

[@ryanhicks942]

Great overview, love this car...the WS6 looks so sad, I’ll take it off your hands for you 😉

[@TWAMotorsports]

Thank you. Ws6 isn't leaving

[@anthonyaranda507]

That's a nice 54

[@TWAMotorsports]

Thank you

[@frankm8533]

Its a great car I've always loved the Patina look even before it was popular. Not into super shiny expensive paint jobs I wouldn't want it scratched Lol. Im ready for a green Silverado vid update

[@TWAMotorsports]

Thank you. Hopefully green truck video coming next week

[@nicotoscani8270]

Cool video Trav. Was curious about that car. Pretty cool. Hey what’s the deal with that red car in the background? Is that a 4th Gen Trans Am?

Hey, I’ve got a ‘54 Bel Air I’m in the early stages of LS swapping. Been looking around for long tubes that will fit but hadn’t found anything definite. Do you have any idea which long tubes are on yours?

[@TWAMotorsports]

No idea. On it whem I bought it

[@manlyproctor]

You found an oil leak on it and you still parked the corvette under it?

[@TWAMotorsports]

Are they auto meter gauges or Dakota Digital? DD makes some GREAT gauges

@@TWAMotorsports but something that looks like it’s been used and passed down 4 generations while having all new drivetrain, steering, brakes, suspension, is very appealing. I’d love one.
