Vehicle Detail
THIS IS A REALLY WONDERFUL 1927 CHEVY. I BUILT THIS CAR ABOUT 18 YEARS AGO FROM A LOW MILES ORIGINAL CHASSIS. (50,000) THE BODY IS HAND MADE 18 GAUGE STEEL AND THE TAIL IS LAMINATED WOOD COVERED WITH LINEN. THE ENGINE IS 1928 WITH A '28 CYLINDER HEAD. (MORE PORTS) THREE SPEED WITH OVERDRIVE. THIS CAR WILL SUSTAIN 65 MPH FOREVER. ABSOLUTELY RELIABLE THIS CAR HAS NEVER FAILED ME. SEE MORE AT rbwyman.com. THE ENGINE HAS EGGE HIGH COMPRESSION PISTONS, A SPECIAL CAM BY ELGIN, DUAL SIDE DRAFT CARBS AND A CUSTOM EXHAUST HEADER. I MACHINED UP A CUSTOM FLYWHEEL AND USED A CHEVY NOVA CLUTCH. THIS REDUCED THE ROTATING MASS BY 75 POUNDS AND PROVIDED A MODERN SPUNG HUB CLUTCH. THIS IS AN EARLY '27 SO IT HAS REAR BRAKES ONLY. IT STOPS FINE. THIS IS THE BOTTOM OF THE ORIGINAL SET OF TIRES THAT I PUT ON WHEN I BUILT THIS CAR. IT IS NOW READY FOR NEW TIRES. FAST AND RELIABLE, THIS CAR WOULD BE IDEAL FOR THE GREAT AMERICA RACE. ALL QUESTIONS GLADLY AND QUICKLY ANSWERED. THANKS FOR LOOKING, BRUCE
