The "Rotten Banana"? 1300HP Twin-turbo 1957 Chevy by Roadster Shop

Amazing!!! What transmission is in it?

Absolute beast.......Beautiful.

Twin turbo is king.

Twin turbo is king.

It no way 1300 hr gos like shit your dreaming show use dino test

4 speed to slow my car will kill it I have a 576 moter with 1200 hr in my 57

That is one siiiiccckkk siiiiccckkk ride 😮

Love watching your videos, this car is one of the best so far!

Love the car. It’s a Firebird Formula steering wheel not Trans Am. I always wondered why it was originally named that.

I love how the guys literally get sucked in to the seats! 🤣 Another killer build from RS...

Cool car. Impressive build. Nice to see good seat belts.

The rotten banana tri five was much better represented by DD Speedshop. Not as fast, not as nice, built by one dude in his 2 car garage. But it was built out of two cars, one brown and one yellow. It was awesome. Different awesome from this one.

Youi got something against southern people, punk?

Thanks for another great video. Another unique car. I very much appreciate leaving the body in factory dimensions

Beautiful build! Looks and SOUNDS GREAT!

The duct work is a great addition. Reminds me of a 68 442, or the old Ram Air Thunderbolts.

Smiles for miles

OK So you immediately see the owner of the classic 57 is a non car guy.. What he had was the cash to have something built .. because NO actual motorhead would have been ok with leaving the body undone . A REAL car guy would have had such reverence for the 57 he would have completed the car to the point of it looking as good as it runs .. He clearly DID NOT. He left the "patina" like so so many trendy clowns do today going as far as to actually laying coats of satin clear down over the top of worn off paint & bare steel ... Just like in the magazines ..

Officially no longer impressed by the amount of horsepower. Every wrench monkey's figured out how to keep increasing it.

Meanwhile....the camera car in front seems to keep staying out in front when he floors it. Hmmmmm.

That sound

TRS alllways nocks It out the Park, this is one mean machine

Because I have 2 project cars I’m gonna give the “treatment”….i gotta ask what a build like this costs.

Why was a K-Mart roll bar installed in this car? A complete roll cage should have been installed front to rear! There will nothing left of you or the car on a 40 mph crash with another vehicle! Car looks and runs fantastic!

I what to go for a ride..... love that car........ Beautiful...... from Mr G ......

I would love to have it but...I n now it's $$$$$$...

This is just ideal. FAST TRACK chassis is a game changer, inspires dreams like this to come true. Such a cool build.

That’s what I’m talking about thanks for not cutting that hood

Love the orange tubing covers! Definitely period correct!

That is bad Ass. Would to have that in a 55 Chevy

AWESOME CAR!!!!!!!!!!!!! As a machinist for the past 30 years that throttle body is bitchin!! To all those boost experts on the Gram have never owned a built turbo diesel to know exactly what boost is. LOL! Love your builds!!!

Beast!!!

I didn’t see the window flippers on the car above the door. Were they removed or are they just not visible ?

DDspeedshop ruined the better "rotten banana" 56 chevy. This 57 is too clean for the tittle

To me 500hp to 750hp is insane 😮 1300 HP means that we start talking rockets and spaceX 😂
Amazing work from RoadsterShop as always 🫡

Dd speedshop rotten bananas

Hey, that the same car & color combo my Dad use to own when I was a kid except it was a four door, not two. I remember when the car sat in the front yard for many years until my Dad sold it to someone unknown. The car did have an original V8 in it. It was an automatic til the tranny gave out. So my Dad swapped it for a manual floor four speed. As I got older & in highschool, I wished my Dad gave me the car so I can own it & maybe get it running again. To this day, I really missed the car.

Killa build,

You guys are cutting Edge!!!!!!!!!!!!

I’m good with shits and gets and I live in AL and was born in TN!!! Lol

My fav BelAir year those rear wings 🪽

Excellent looking Cheve

Not another LS please.

must be open headers, most turbo cars are much quieter …Turbos shut them up…Mine just whispers

Brother has a 63 corvette roadster.
Its been in his garage for nearly 30+ yrs in pcs.
327 p.g with power steering. Would be a perfect project for roadster shop

IT IS A BEAUTIFUL CAR, GOOD SOUND OF THE ENGINE.

Hurst doesn't make a straight line shifter any longer ?

Right...if you going to get 8 pistons doing that crazy horse power..
What could you do with 12..
And no modern stuff... like... stick a jet engine up.its ass😊

BBA = BAD ASS BEL AIR Freaking Cool !

smile says it all !

Roadster Shop in my opinion is building the highest quality and best driving hotrod on the planet, consistently. Not a one off that you roll into the show. These guys are deploying high levels of creativity, knowledge and technology to make dreams come true. It's been fun to watch their evolution from putting out nice cars to elite levels of production. Hard work always pays off
