This unassuming two-door model, adorned with a weathered yellow paint job reminiscent of a timeworn lemon, conceals remarkable performance capabilities beneath its exterior.
The Tri-Five era, encompassing 1955, 1956, and 1957 Chevrolet models, holds a revered status among collectors and hot rod enthusiasts alike. With its revolutionary design and enduring popularity, the Tri-Five Chevy lineup has garnered a devoted following over the decades. While Roadster Shop’s expertise extends beyond the domain of Tri-Five vehicles, its latest creation firmly establishes its place within this esteemed niche.
