I was excited to see new photos posted to Holley’s Facebook album of Gary Kollofski’s 1957 Chevy<\/a>.

Gary’s solution is to power the car with two BMW 750iL V12s connected to each other via custom plate and gear case. The drivetrain consists of a 700R4 automatic transmission and Ford 9-inch rear end with 4.65 gears. <\/p>\n
