Newbern Drags The Abandoned ’57 Chevrolet Home From Texas And Even Does A Roadside Makeover!


Newbern Drags The Abandoned ’57 Chevrolet Home From Texas And Even Does A Roadside Makeover!

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!

Check Out Tim Allen’s Entire Car Collection Right Here. Wow This Dude Has Some Cool Stuff.

I’ve been fortunate enough to see some amazing car collections in person, including some that we aren’t even allowed to talk about, but whenever you get the chance to see a collection like Tim Allen’s you know it is something special. He and Jay Leno have been friends for a long time, and their shops aren’t that far away from each other in Southern California. Both are fairly regular attendees at the Bob’s Big Boy cruise night in Taluca Lake, and Tim is known to show up with the family for burgers while checking out the hot rods. In this tour by the Petersen Automotive Museum folks, you’ll get a tour from Tim himself at his collection.

Here is Part One and Part Two of the walk through of his collection with information on each and every car in the building. What’s funny are the cars that Tim can’t stand buy keeps because his wife adores them. LOL I also like the fact that some of these he’s had for so long that he can’t even remember some of the details and you don’t really car because it is Tim talking about them. Check out the video, enjoy the cars, and dream about having some of them yourself.
