57 Corvette , Rochester Mechanical Fuel Injection 283 c.i.d / 283 h.p.
Hell, brother, I just figured you were testing us!
I have to say, though, that is one of the wonkiest renditions of a '57 Chevy I've ever seen. In fact, I'm running off the assumption that it even was a '57 Chevy that he was trying to create! 
Here's some of his other work...

I guess I could of played it off but that would have been dishonest...
I'll admit to it just being a FUPA on my part.
I know how tired you all get of looking at the best car ever manufactured... It's OK to have a LS in one too.
Not sure - my MBZ chassis W-number knowledge doesn't go as far back as that white pontoon. The black one "might" be another W108/W109 with a crunched back end from the general shape and the tail light style. I see another pontoon to the far right. *shrug* The W108/109 were the last of the high grille cars, and pretty much the last of the ones with real wood in the interior. They've always been a favorite of mine. If something were to happen to my current W126, I'd sure take a good look at getting a W108 and putting my diesel engine into it - its been done a few times, but I don't know what all is involved with that conversion.
Unexpected find in a Chamber of Commerce and visitor center 
Took this from the world wide web, but this is what I hope my Cadillac will look like someday.
Do you currently have one, or just dreamin'?

I'm a little confused, it's called "Propane Special" but looks to be standard fuel carb setup. Was this car run on propane or liquid fuel?
The owner of a local propane company and a couple employees built the original in 1956 and it ran on nitromethane

That's pretty cool.

You can't beat Nitro, but it would have been cool to run it on propane.
I just got one and in the process of trying to get it drivable and also water proof. LOL
How about posting up a vehicle made in the year of your birth.

1963 Mercury Marauder wearing scallops, Supremes, and a very "East Coast" exhaust, Bellflower pipes. Nicely done, IMHO.
