1957 Chevrolet Corvette - Mechanical Mistress Makeover

Bill Kroll's '57 Vette Rod swaps psychedelia for style and powerWhat comes to mind when you see the term mechanical mistress? Do you envision a "project from hell" that consumes all of your available money, spare parts, tools in your shop, and your relationships with everyone you know? In Bill Kroll's case, that phrase was painted in the coves of a '57 Corvette that he bought back in the mid-'70s when he was 19. That wasn't all that was painted on that C1's original fiberglass. "It had a 'psychedelic' paint job on it," he recalls. "It was kind of like a show car, but more of a show car on the outside than underneath. It was a pretty crazy paint job-people either loved it or hated it."inline_mediumwraptextright27524587/featuredvehicles/corp_1002_1957_chevrolet_corvettecorp_1002_01+1957 _chevrolet_corvette+.jpgTrue
