REMO IERACI

1957 CHEVROLET BEL AIR

“I BOUGHT my ’57 about 15 years ago from a guy in Beechboro, WA. It was an American import, running a Blue Flame six with a three-on-the-tree. The plan was to do a complete body-off-chassis rebuild, and after five years’ work it now runs a 454 big-block, backed by a Turbo 400. The exterior paint is Venetian Red, while inside there’s full leather trim and electric windows. Rims are 18x9 on the front and 18x10 out back. A huge thanks to my brother Gino, who gave up his weekends in my factory, Angelo for the interior, Eddie, and my wife Tanya.”
