~ Byron's Gasser Madness! ~

~ Tim Dykstra's 57 Chevy Gasser  ~


Hi Byron. My name is Tim and i live in Douglas Massachusetts. I owned this car for 16 years. It was raced in New Hampshire and New York in the 60s and 70s under the name "Mr. Freeze". Straight axle, set back motor, (originally 427 with Hilborn injectors), fiberglass tilt nose, Olds rear end. All that good 60s technology. I always intended to turn it into a street rod, but fortunately that never happened. Anyways i recently got into circle track racing, and decided to sell it. In trying to figure out what it was worth I stumbled across your web site. I ended up trading it to a drag racer for a truck to haul my race car. It was double tough to watch that car roll out the driveway, but he's going to turn it back into a race car so that's pretty cool. I think I'm gonna hafta find me a 55 now ! Feel free to post these pictures on your site if you want.
