Lot Shots Find of the Week: 1959 Chevrolet Biscayne

On any given day or time, the lot outside a Summit Racing store can turn into an impromptu mini car show, depending on who’s stopped by the store.

It’s alive!

Nicknamed Frankenscayne, this 1959 Chevrolet Biscayne four-door sedan is a whole different creature thanks to matte blue paint, painted rims, whitewalls, and shaved door handles. And that’s a good thing. Biscaynes were produced primarily for the fleet market but were offered to the general public as a low-dollar, bare bones vehicle.

In short, Frankenscayne is a different take on one of the most basic, run-of-the-mill vehicles from the late 1950s.

That’s what hot rodding is all about, isn’t it?
