Custom 1959 Chevrolet Wagon at Lonestar Round Up

Written by Ken Altes

Full custom with 1960 Mercury grille. This car has a stoked inline six with three side draft(?) carbs (3/2s?) plus other performance and appearance mods. It’s refreshing to see sixes. In 1959, the available six was a 235. cu.in making 135 hp from a 8.25:1 compression ratio, called the Hi-Thrift.IMG_6024 IMG_60231959 Chevrolet Thrift Six 235 cu in IMG_6022
