Joe Petralia's killer '57 sedan delivery was built by his buddies over at Bartone Bros. Racing. Well, actually, Michael Bartone built it for himself, but Joe just had to have it! Since it was originally built with no intention to sell, nothing but the best parts were used-to the tune of about $175K, Joe says. Where did all that money go? Well, the '57 sits on an Art Morrison chassis with coilover suspension, four-link rear, 9-inch Ford rearend, power rack-and-pin-ion, Wilwood disc brakes, and Budnick wheels. Underhood is a 540hp Bill Mitchell/World Products 427ci Motown small-block Chevy backed by a Keisler five-speed, and fortified with Vintage Air and Painless Performance wiring. The interior consists of Connolly leather with German square-weave carpet, power windows, and a full custom sound system.
