Hi, I'm also 16 and I have a '51 Chevy Fleetline 4dr. I'm keeping the 235 6cyl with powerglide auto because it's a rare engine combo. I'm doing a '50's- '60's era correct hotrod by getting an offy 3 carb intake, fenton headders, smithys mufflers and eco can tips, all parts which were available in the '50's and '60's. The extrtior will be a single stage medium dark purple and purple and white vinyl interior. It's gonna be more of a 1960's higher end/ low end mix and match because a high end era correct car would have a V8 normally, not a stock 6cyl but the low end car could have the 6cyl but would have a not so flashy appearence. Check out my cardomain site for pics of my car. My soon to be daily driver is a '67 Ford Falcon Futura 4dr.
