1955 Chevy Gasser build. first drive

[@ericmeredith3446]

This is still one of my favorite rides on the whole internet!!killer job brother!!

[@IronheadGarage]

Hey thanks Eric! Yeah I think it's my favorite to lol😁. Thanks for stopping in brother I appreciate it. Have a good one👍👍👍

[@ericmeredith3446]

@@IronheadGarage you are welcome, from Southern Indiana,,,,take care brother!

[@PCModelBuilder]

My first car/Hot Rod was a 1955 Chevy 210 post. They were MADE to be GASSERS!!! Nice ride my friend!!!

[@IronheadGarage]

Hey thanks Pete! That's pretty cool to hear your first car was a 55 and even a post. Nothing like a old 55 chevy right. Had to wait till I was in my 40s to get one. Found one cheap that I could afford that nobody else wanted. She was a rusty old girl but I knew I could build something cool out of it. Your sure right they where made to be a Gasser😁 I've Always loved those old Gassers some of the coolest hotrods ever built. Thanks for checking it out and your comment I appreciate it much. Have a great rest of the day and take care👍👍👍

[@rickywhite7578]

Good to see people putting these old 55s back on the road. My father would be proud

[@IronheadGarage]

Hey thanks Ricky that's really cool to hear. No body wanted the old 55 around my parts but I knew I could get it back on the road. Tried my best to build it like the old boys did back in the day Gasser style. She's just a good ole street car. Lot of people dig it and I'm proud to have it. She's running great now tomorrow I'll be taking her out to a show. Thanks for checking it out have a great weekend. Take care 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@rickywhite7578]

@IronheadGarage I agree with that. My father use to horse trade alot back in his day to restore the old 50s and put them back on the road. Last one he fixed up was my uncles 55 stepside truck. It really was nice. I got to ride in it a few times before he passed. His son sold it off. I was really hurt by that I tried to get my cousin to sell it to me. But he absolutely would not do it. He got alot less for it than I was offering him. What a shame. I heard the guy that bought it parted it out and scrapped the rest. What a shame. Maybe one day I can afford to find one and restore it to honor my father's memory. I'm getting older and probably will never get the chance. But I'm glad to see you completing this project hopefully you pick a awesome color scheme for it. I'm definitely going to keep watching this one unfold.

[@IronheadGarage]

That's sad to hear about the 55 step side to bad he didn't sell it to you I bet you would still have it. Poor old truck. Keep looking they are still out there but getting hard to find. I have a 55 GMC step side that I've been working on its own my channel too. They sure did build great stuff back in the 50s. I sure dig the old rides. I need to get back working on it soon. The 55 Gasser I'll probably leave the old patina on it not sure if I'll ever paint it. I've had a few hotrod's with very nice paint and they are stressful to have. The 55 it doesn't care if you go down a gravel road or it someone's leaning on it lol. I do really enjoy driving and not having to worry about the paint. But you just never know one day I just might paint it but would be the old 60s style paint job. Thanks for sharing the story about that 55👍🏻

[@mike-th5kr]

omg i just bought a tee shirt with this very car on it .... i thought it was fake ... awesome car .

[@IronheadGarage]

Lol you know I have the same T shirt It's not my 55 but it is super close. I wish it was! Lol. It has fuel injection my has a tunnel ram. If I'm thinking of the same shirt. Thanks for watching have a great New Year 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@SuperFlowback]

How do you like the tunnel ram with a single carburetor? I have a 1956 bel air and I love the way they look but I don’t know anyone who has used that set up

[@IronheadGarage]

Hey cool to hear you have a 56 got to love the tri5 Chevy's. I like my single carb tunnel ram a lot. I have always thought they look really cool old school cool 😁 She runs pretty darn good and get to save a little money only having to buy one carb. A lot of guys have dual carbs but hardly ever see a single carb set up and that's what I like to about it. They do stand tall. Good luck getting one they are out there I bought my base from summit I believe but got my vintage top off eBay. Thanks for watching take it easy out there 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@RadRandyandLilCindyRogers]

The '55 is my favorite! Very cool ride! How exciting!

[@IronheadGarage]

Yes it sure was😁 She should run a little better now. Did a little more tuning On the carb. Need to take it out again and see. Thanks for checking it out Have a good one👍👍👍

[@paulmcwilliams1709]

That's a COOL ride in a '55! I like the 4-speed shifter. 😎

[@GwynnOak1]

WOO! HOO! CONGRATS Chris! I can imagine how stoked you are now! A LONG time coming! But there's nothing in the world like that maiden voyage. Makes all the blood sweat and tears worth it. Point is YOU built it! You were wise in taking your lady along, helps restrain you. Too many times I've taken some of my buddies along, and of course all they do is egg you on. Proud of you, much more restraint than yours truly. I've never had a first run yet without it going full bore sooner or later. Fine job, be proud, you richly deserve it!

[@IronheadGarage]

Thanks a bunch Dan! Man I was sure stoked when I was driving her nothing like the first time. You are definitely right about having my lady with me if it was one of my buddy's we might have been in the ditch somewhere lol Glad she wanted to go with me. That old jackpot seems to be fine I got from you to. Carb needs a little more tuning but nothing to much Can't wait to run her a little harder next time. Thanks for the comment and watching I appreciate you have a great night brother👍👍👍

[@SketchysGarage]

It's so great when you get to enjoy the fruits from your hard work. It's been a great journey thanks for letting us tag alot.😎

[@Renogasser]

Too cool, that’s the best feeling when your first drive doesn’t let you down, now for the tweaking of the little thing but like any hot rod you’ll never be done. Be proud that one fine ride and it’s all done by you!! Next time let’s see some tire smoke cause black lines matter! Congrats Chris!!

[@IronheadGarage]

Thanks brother appreciate it. That first drive was pretty cool and glad she made it back home. Carb needs a little more tuning probably going to be changing out the power valve should run a little better off idle. Your right about they are never done always will be doing something to her. More to come of her Thanks for watching appreciate it. Have a great night brother👍👍👍

[@tonygrenstiner4088]

Hey Chris awesome I love the first time out it just makes you want to crawl all over it, I love the sounds of a car with no interior, it makes that sound of a beast and you can be the one controlling the feeling of power that you built into it. Great job I love that car it's so old school reminds me of the old days in high school late 60/70s, I love it, Later Tony

[@IronheadGarage]

Hey thanks Tony! It was a great day taking her out for the first time man what a rush lol I do like the sound of her with no interior she does sound like a beast in side. I will build door panels and probably put carpet in her but none of that sound deadened stuff in her. I done good if she remains you of the cars back in the day cool to hear. Thanks for the comment Have a great weekend brother👍👍👍

[@chrisguerra355]

[@mikejanes6225]

Chris, very impressive! Runs and drives very nicely. They almost always can use a little tweaking. I am glad you chose to keep it old school with a 4 speed. They are much more fun, especially when you are out in rural America and not in bumper to bumper traffic. Looks like you guys still have some snow. Should be gone by June. 😁 I hope you are pleased with the results. Congratulations on a successful build and remember it's the journey and not just the destination that has the most memories. Keep on keepin' on! Best to you brother.

[@IronheadGarage]

Thanks a bunch Mike! Sure was cool to drive her for the first time just glad it went all good and she made it back home lol. Your right about the 4 speed nothing like shifting gears in a old hotrod. Right about the snow to should be all gone around Jun lol. Thanks for the comment appreciate it. Have a great weekend brother👍👍👍

[@FUELFIREGARAGE]

Good job Chris enjoy that feeling of driving something yu built it the best feeling till you throw the drive shaft out .😁

[@IronheadGarage]

Thanks a lot Mike. Sure was cool to take her out for the first time as you know to. Just glad she made it back home. Next time will be the real test hoping my drive line holds lol shit happens brother that's hotroding for you. Thanks for the comment have a great weekend brother! Hope to see more of your 55 one day Take it easy👍👍👍
