  • Chad's a gearhead through and through. And a tragic motorcycle accident in his youth never stood in the way of fulfilling his dream of owning a '55 Chevy. Tim and the team surprise this Tacoma, WA family with a full-blown makeover of his Handyman Wagon. Bodywork on the '55 Chevy Handyman consists of just about every piece of original sheet metal being replaced, even the chassis! Then, Tim Strange and Tommy Boshers bring in some characters to help, while our owner checks in live via video feed for a look-see.

    You see a load of these shows and most of them you don't want to look too deep, this one on the other hand, is something to be proud of, what you are doing,who is doing it and who it is being done for. Chad's never say die spirit would have gotten this done in a couple of years, well maybe twelve. I've got a bet that we see a guy in a chair at some future build after all you saved him ten years work and he doesn't want to be bored. If you ever get around to doing one for me, I'm kind of partial to a I6, the 4.2L with 6 straight pipes. I had a 56 2dr in 63 that had a 261 and 6pipes. Damn I miss the car but I've grown old and lazy. Great show.

    Fantastic job by everyone involved. I have to wonder though how he gets in and out. I was expecting a ramp or a lift. With the driver's seat there, he would need someone else to be riding with him at all times to put the wheelchair in the car after he's loaded into the drivers seat and then to unload the wheelchair when it's time for him to get back out. Don't get me wrong, the car affords him some independence to a degree but it didn't go far enough.

    Escape? Who the heck would volunteer and then back out of putting in some time for a good cause like this one? Over rust?
    I wouldn't care if the car needed to have half the sheet metal replaced, I'd hang in until the end, just for bragging rights! Building a car out of a disaster like this is like becoming a Marine, - Improvise, Adapt, Overcome!

    They say that then put them dame crapy no side wall tires! Put some 185/70-15 Coker tires in it and put a set of Gabriel air shocks and that car will float down the road if your rebuilding a classic out side the 6 cyclender the ,283 would have been used . they do out standing work mocking up a car but if your trying to keep it close to OEM BUILD just food for thought

    I like it all but the engine. I hate those LS motors. I don't care about all that HP. I want an engine to look like one. Put a 283 ci or a 327 ci. Then it will be a real car.
