Week to Wicked and Speedway Motors Build a Chevy
Speedway Motors, America’s Oldest Speed Shop, will kick off 2017 with a bang by teaming up with the crew of Week to Wicked, building an envy-worthy ’52 Chevy pickup. Details are still under wraps, but Speedway’s Damon Lee tells us the initial plans include a full chassis swap as well as a powertrain upgrade. Maybe a GM-based Connect-and-Cruise package will be taking place of the tired six-cylinder?! Or perhaps a more traditional small block Chevy would be a better fit to power the truck as it crisscrosses the country, celebrating Speedway’s 65th anniversary.
The five-day build will begin January 16th with the team tearing the stock 3-window down to a bare shell before beginning the long transformation from week restoration to wicked street machine.
