[@SummitRacing]

Awesome that you stopped by! Look forward to having you at the shop!

[@RobbyLayton]

I can’t wait to get back out to Ohio and come back to the shop!! Thank you all for the support!!

[@stevemiller3082]

I’m soo disappointed l. I would have taken them around the sights. My family has been in racing since my grandfather set the world speed record in 1965. I also have family at summit racing

[@robertmcclafferty1371]

Restomod. Make it look close to stock. Get a modern engine. Make sure there's air. No lowering it, wagon wheels, or cutting open the hood. A daily/ weekend driver. Nothing too radical.

[@ossbrewer9285]

Full restore

[@MrStangman69]

Such a awesome video as always it was so cool to see you came to my neck of the woods you was only 15 minutes from me I'm at summit racing every payday 😀

[@steveschmitt2849]

Robbie, all 1957 Chevy's deserve a full restoration not a show restoration but a car show driver. Thanks for sharing and stay safe 👍

[@jamesfoley9097]

What Steve said, especially a 2-door Sport model.

[@littlearsehole75]

There are plenty of perfectly restored Tri-Fives out there. If he wants to ratrod it or do a restomod, more power to him.

[@chinesevirus-ix3yr]

Chevy was used in Korea as a globalist mercenary force Might as well drive Volkswagen

[@nostromo4269]

All tri-5’s not just 57’s

[@307.William]

I’ve got a 57 Chevy stepside rotting away in my backyard 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@WDDetailing]

It was SUCH a pleasure having you out here Robby, we can't wait to see what you do with these cars and to see what's in store for us in the future!

[@wernerpd777]

Full restoration is clearly the way to go.

[@xippzap]

@@wernerpd777 Yup, show that old 57 some respect and bring it back to its glory.

[@2031dj]

Cars !!! :Yes" Does that mean he got the vett also?

[@williamkriekaard9829]

RATROD 4X4 FULL CAGE 57CHEVY ON 38INCH SUPERSWAMPER THORNBIRDS 800HP HOLLY SNIPER EFI, BLACK WITH AN EARNHARDT 3 ON THE DOOR. 😎👍

[@PAPER1CHASER]

You should do that 57 justice & do a Complete Restore

[@johnn919]

Full resto-mod/pro-touring with all the creature comforts of a new car. Art Morrison chassis, new LT-1 with 8 speed trans, AC, power everything, leather interior. The works!! That 57 2dr coupe deserves the best!

[@rickorr2181]

Everything is there. Full restoration should be in order, add another beautiful '57 to the world!

[@trevorkenny]

Agreed!

[@jacksonms212]

agreed if it's complete go for the gold !

[@2031dj]

Yesssssssss!!!!!!!

[@TheAquabears]

After seeing what you guys could do with Ed's Golden Nugget, I have full faith that you have the tools and the talent to make that 57 shine like a gem again.

[@duanebuck193]

I love watching Demri's expressions and her eyes when discussing some of the choices.

[@Andy_Hunter]

100% same.

[@Allcon-83]

It's so cool that you are restoring this beautiful find. My grandfather had a 57 that was salmon and white. I wish he was still here to watch you bring this beauty back to life. He loved watching your show and would be proud of the work you all do. He passed last November, so this will be an emotional watch for me, but it will bring back some good memories. And if you decide to paint the car, his favorite color was blue, the same blue in his favorite Robby Layton hat.

[@michellelomier326]

I think since it’s a classic and you have most of original parts, need to do it justice with custom paint like you do Robby ❤️

[@christopherreynolds8873]

Full restoration would be an amazing series of videos. Also, buy the corvette. Could be fun

[@ripvanrevs]

I bought a 78 corvette a couple years ago that sat for 24 years. It still has a 1989 Ohio highway patrol safety sticker on the windshield.

[@marksloat1608]

It is supper cool to see the respect your are getting from the auto enthusiast community. Seeing a good and kind bunch of regulars from the middle of America make had been a great adventure to watch. Stay humble and always be Robby (the boss can do what ever sue wants- she is the BOSS!).

[@hwlngwlf1]

Can't wait to see the build on this one, but I really would love to see you and your crew do a full restoration on it. I bet you could make that car look like every teenagers wet dream.

[@tommyhenson8679]

It being what it is really deserves a full restoration, I’m excited what you turn it into

[@mikedeclerck1421]

Full resto, with the rare arkus duntoff 289 motor package coupled with the floor shifter. I'm old enough to remember the model, as a friend of mine had one through his fathers dealership in Redwood City, CA. in 1957. The car was black, and the performance was awesome. Check the GM archives for the specifics on that rare model.

[@tomboone201]

283 ?

[@Jeanie363034]

289 FORD 283 Chevy-----Heck put a 327 Chevy 375 HP in it 🙂

[@smjnurse1]

Absolutely a full restoration! ‘57 Chevy was my first car in high school (1966). Yeah, I know, I’m old but I love the classics.

[@CharlieB195]

Full restoration!!! Allot of cars are “patina” finished because folks are not capable of doing the work to get them perfect. You da man. You can make it perfect!

[@AFloridaSon]

I would say full restoration on the '57, but if it's not looking like a good candidate for it, then you should go full rat rod. Make it your own. BTW, house screen over the radiator is common in Florida during love bug season.

[@timmcgonagle1993]

You HAVE to do a full Resto! It too nice a classic to not bring it back to the beautiful machine it once was !

[@michaelfranks4687]

Full restoration for sure! That thing will be so beautiful once you get a hold of it in your shop!

[@b._.j413]

Can't wait to see this rig done up. Knowing how you work, it will be a masterpiece when it's done👌

[@madmanimal8236]

Full restoration, custom paint, and power train. That car deserves it.

[@getlosttoday4045]

Keep the 57 original! The crome and curves are amazing!

[@meforsure5221]

This car deserves the best Robbie crew make over. This car has survived this long it deserves another 40 plus years of life.

[@d3v1lman]

WD Detailing that corvette was an awesome video! The work you put in was amazing! Can't wait to see what you do with the Chevy, Robby!

[@opendstudio7141]

Rust belt retro. Summit Racing has everything to rebuild that bondo bucket from the ground up. You have to admit that this model and year - are some of the most beautiful vehicles ever created by man.

[@sandkworkshop]

Please do a full restoration. This car would be so sweet done all the way. I would be willing to help get it.

[@justusrogers7473]

Full restoration. You guys are the best

[@kentmckean6795]

Good luck, you'r gonna need it!

[@amtcruiser]

You are able so do a total restoration. What a beauty.

[@johnnyhomegrownholmgren9999]

That Bel Air should be the wifey’s nice go to town car! 👍

[@mountainwestextremeoffroad4024]

Full on in depth restoration. It looks like it needs some L❤️VE❣️❣️

[@sparkywatts3072]

My first car was a 57 Chevy. I was 16 years old. The 57 Chevy was one of a very few cars that were classic when they rolled off the assembly line! Best buy you've ever made Robby. If you do a complete restoration, it will be too expensive to drive. Make it a daily driver. Fix or upgrade mechanicals (engine, brakes etc.) then an adequate paint job. That will make you a hero amongst 57 Chevy enthusiasts. Then to push it over the top... let an old man who's first car was a 57 win it in a (fixed) raffle. 😂

[@youneverknow1316]

I have been waiting for this one. If Robby and the gang do a "Golden Nugget" restore on this car it will be a masterpiece

[@yogisfriend7869]

Full Restoration please. Bring it back to its former glory....As for the Corvette, I saw the detail portion of that ride. It screams for your touches

[@josephmcdaniel3040]

This is a true icon of a classic. I'm sure the original owner would love to see this ole gal fully restored. Maybe with a modern suspension and motor so future generations can love it too

[@scottlee1211]

Take it home Robby and do a full restoration…original…rotisserie complete! I know you have some major projects in the works, but, this one deserves a full makeover! Buy the Vet!

[@Flip4Ford]

Doesn't matter what you do with the 57 as long as you have fun! :-)

[@bigdmister]

😂Robby for sure restore it. The 57s are such an iconic car it deserves the love and cherished.

[@gordonbruce8501]

Full resto for sure! They look awesome done up.

[@larrythomas6813]

I’m from Cincinnati and have been watching for over a year. Can’t wait to see you restore the 57 chev.

[@stevemarchant3469]

Full restoration please ,, looks awesome

[@patrioted9543]

Awesome Robby, I hope and pray that you work your Magic on this 57 and do like you do to make it great again. TY for all the great content.

[@jasonkirkpatrick446]

Thank you just good clean fun

[@deeone805]

Definitely full restoration!!!!

[@340Demon]

Clean and simple will never go out of style. Repaint it in a factory color, basic reliable small block or LS, lowered on some wheels and send it down the road.

[@bluboyroland4069]

Would love to see you do a full restoration on the 57 Chevy

[@westrnite]

Little soap and water, some elbow grease...it will be fully restored. Long live Layton!!!

[@MACISUS]

Goodness gracious! That corvette is my dream car. Lucky find!

[@ericjackson6982]

I love 57 chevys. A full restoration would be awesome but I also like the idea of turning it into a sleeper car. I can’t wait to see what you do? You most definitely have to get the corvette. I’m a huge sucker for stingrays. That one should be a full restoration for sure.

[@montegtaylor]

Crazy projects! Look forward to seeing what you are going to do with it.

[@henrycarlson7514]

So wise , Thank You . Another fine project . Thank you , I would like to see more Summit Racing

[@billbeiser7772]

Let's see a total nut-and-bolt frame of resto- I am happy to see it in your hands, Robby!

[@edwardsimmons3721]

Looking forward to seeing both these projects completed.

[@chuckborghoff8443]

Full resto. This car deserves it.

[@Legoman585]

Definitely my favourite car you've had on your channel. Looking forward to see more of this one.

[@paulpaul5338]

A full restoration for sure!

[@eddiepitts]

It would be sacrilegious to not make it beautiful with a full restore.

[@dgmills5351]

I always appreciate your judgement in deciding what is worth a complete resto vs resto mod! The '57 would be a good mod, please don't change the body style tho!

[@garythompson1391]

Definitely a full restoration !!!

[@eddieladue6689]

very excited for you and the channel cannot wait to see what she will become in your hands im working on a 52 coupe sport on a mid 90s Dakota sport chassis swap lol should be fun

[@sonnymiousse6944]

You have a lot of projects on the go I’m loving the content ❤❤❤ if possible keep it up but don’t over exert yourself, family and friends

[@williamriley-jones]

Finally, I was waiting for this video!!

[@ronbrown3552]

WHAT A GORGEOUS COLOR❗

[@davidhumeston5292]

1957 Bel-Air 4x4.. very cool on the sand...some 4 link suspension air ride

[@reddog543211]

Excellent video Robby....can't wait to see it get drivable....cam shots and editing were prime

[@wavywade8164]

Hey Robby nice car, one that absolutely deserves a full restoration. You know, they don't make '57 Chevy Bellaire cars anymore. Not many in that good of original condition. I love those cars!

[@jefferyyoung6836]

In oldtimerville we used window screens in front of the radiator to keep the bugs and leaves from getting into the air flow and blocking it. It worked really well and if it gets damaged you just get another one.

[@Astana_Lunch]

Yes!!! Buy the Corvette! I'd love to watch that rebuild.

[@plasticjoe26]

Full Restore! you do awesome work!

[@stevez340]

You’re gonna have to make a list and prioritize the dozen projects you have started so we know if the bruised and battered BroncStar has a shot at getting finished😂

[@joebagodonuts4039]

Full restoration it deserves it!!!

[@128file]

Nice to see you in my hometown. You usually don’t find much to work with in our rust belt but it will be fun to see what you can do with the 57.

[@davemalo3674]

The look on your wife's face when you said you'd have to decide who would drive back was priceless. I suspect the decision is already made! You don't call her the boss for nothing!

[@markmarigoldsingssongsofpr3253]

With the beautiful paint jobs you do I think you should totally restore it.

[@Okabecam]

so I live in Northern WV but I drive out here often mostly in Mason area. but it is so cool how quickly it turns from city/suburban area into total country/corn field living so quickly out here. Cool thing is there are a lot of barn finds. the trick is getting people to sell it at its actual value not an inflated price that a restored one goes for.

[@R1FY3R]

Full restoration and keep it as a cruiser!!

[@danrussell3439]

Looking forward to how the 57 turns out. Great video

[@KIDHLRGarage]

Can’t wait to see you guys get this bel air running and driving. It’s one of my favorite cars.

[@DonAshcraft]

The WDD guys have crazy awesome lighting in their shop! Got to see the details !

[@brucegenest7012]

Trailer it back and do a fine resto-mod! That would make a great series.

[@davidcox2197]

Yes modern engine and suspension with oem body. Sleeper!

[@fluke196c]

How is Aiden doing? Would be great to see an update video and see how he is coping with his loss and hopefully enjoying the beautiful truck you gifted to him.

[@tl32246]

Summit is the bomb!! I had a radiator come in from them damaged and they immediately shipped me a new one with the return label in the new box. Their customer service is great!!

[@Rickybobby12]

Yes my favorite car can't wait to see what you do with it Badass resto rod with ls and one nice paint job

[@KENNEY1023]

Full restoration, of course this car needs a ton of work and it would be exspensive. I hope you git it cheap. These cars are becoming harder to find if the restoration waa done it could be kept and driven many years and sold for a big profit. If you're not willing to put in it what is needed tgen make a few videos and sell it to someone who is willing to do what the car deserves.

[@jonmilley]

I'm torn... a full restoration would be awesome to watch, but an Icon Derelict style sleeper build would be really sweet too.

[@tl32246]

Make it look like new!!! This is one of the most beautiful cars ever produced!!

[@TheBurcham1]

She's a survivor, she deserves a full restoration to all original, also VGG could help you with the power barn and digicals

[@jimmyshadden6236]

I think this car deserves a full restoration...bring it back to new!

[@guy0561]

Definitely do a full resto. And with a sweet unique colour paintjob.

[@timetestedtruth]

full restoration for sure, these are the best of the tri-fives

[@johnmorgan5377]

Whole restor it’s lovely

[@robertswafford5655]

Full rebuild and cool paint

[@IntuCars]

It will absolutely start!

[@georgerigakis9765]

I wanna see this one when it's done! Wow! What a nice car! + full restoration

[@vincentcronin3361]

i am in love with that 57 chevy!!! my number 1 dream car that id sell my soul for haha I hope you make it nice with a full restoration! Such iconic cars!

[@brianhayden3436]

Full rebuild and a great paint job, I was born in 57 they are my favourite Chevy.

[@ronaldclark1178]

Something that complete needs to be restored! They are getting harder and harder to find in any condition. If you aren't going to restore it please sell it to someone who will. I just turned 73 and really enjoy how you young people are going to great lengths to keep wrenching. Love your channel and thanks for the great videos!!

[@tylervanderhoning5115]

Full restoration love this car

[@floyd6545]

Full restoration on the 57. As for the Corvette, that's up to you!

[@lillie7124]

Full restoration would be absolutely amazing to see
