This is the rescue mission for the 1957 Chevrolet that Finnegan and Newbern discovered on their trip through Texas a few months ago. Stopping to see a roadside find resulted in Newbern buying this 1957 Chevrolet, and some parts, to go home with after getting a really rough and tumble ’57 for his birthday from Finnegan. So now he has two, but he had to go for a little weekend road trip to get this sucker out of storage, on the trailer and to his house. But it looked sad on the trailer, so Dave pulled over and gave it some love.
Video Description:
On episode 154 of Finnegan’s Garage, Mike Finnegan’s friends, David Newbern and Matt Knabb venture to Big Spring, Texas, to pick up a neglected 1957 Chevy 150, which the guys had spotted a few months earlier during a road trip from Arizona to Georgia. The car was had been sitting under a shed since the mid-1990s because the owner had used it as a parts car for another restoration project. The tires were flat, the windows were busted out but there wasn’t a lot of rust in the body so Newbern fell in love and used a come-a-long strap to drag the carcass up onto an open trailer and then tow it 14 hours home to Georgia. In a future episode of Finnegan’s Garage we’ll get it running and of course do burnouts in this awesome machine. Thanks for watching!
