Viva Las Vegas: Clean 1958 Chevy 2-Door

It’s the tri-five Chevies (1955-1957) that always get all the attention, but I have to admit I love the massive look of the ‘58. This nice example belongs to Mark Kindig, who’s updated it with disc brakes and drop spindles. It’s got a 283 with the tri-power setup: three 2-barrel Rochesters. Mark hopes someday to swap in a 348, Chevy’s first production big-block, which made its debut the same year this car rolled off the line. But it’s going to have to be "run what you brung" until he can locate an affordable candidate. What he brung ain’t bad—see close-ups after the jump!
