When Gordie was growing during the 1960s in western Pennsylvania, he always liked cars and drag racing. 1955 Chevrolets were extremely popular on both the street as well as the drag strip during this era and this kid knew one day he himself would own one!

‍

The goal for him was to obtain one on the cheap and then fix it up in a fashion that he wanted, based on all the ’55 Chevy examples he had seen in car magazines. Determined as he was, when he turned 18 years old in 1971, he found and purchased a ’55 for himself and was on his way.
