The Journey to the 1957 Chevy
Jeff Lutz has been working on this beauty for quite some time. He started building it back in 2022, and with the help of DMC Racing—the same folks who built the new chassis for the OG Murder Nova—this car was destined for greatness. The DMC team is known for their top-notch craftsmanship, and they didn’t disappoint with this build. The chassis alone is a work of art.
Jeff didn’t stop there. He took charge of the rest of the build, and the result is a 493 cubic inch small-block billet motor with twin turbos. Yes, you read that right—this thing is a beast! From what we’ve seen in videos from the event, this car is not just beautiful, it’s fast. And when I say fast, I mean it’s tearing up the track already.
First Impressions at the Tri-Five Nationals
The Tri-Five Nationals was the first time Jeff’s new ’57 Chevy hit the track, and it was nothing short of impressive. For a brand-new car, it was running straight and true right from the start. Jeff knows how to set up a car, and it shows. The first passes were smooth and fast, which is no small feat for a car making its debut.
Now, we all know Jeff Lutz for his love of ’57 Chevys. He’s raced them on the street, on NPK, and even during Drag Week. This new build is a nod to that legacy, and it’s got everyone talking.

What’s Next for Jeff’s ’57 Chevy?
Here’s where things get interesting. Word on the street is that Jeff might be willing to part with this car—for the right price, of course. If someone’s willing to pay what it’s worth, Jeff could let it go. But that doesn’t mean it’s going to be easy on the wallet. With a chassis worth over $200,000 and the rest of the build likely pushing the total value well over $300,000, this is one serious piece of machinery.
But even if it doesn’t sell, don’t expect to see it in NPK anytime soon. Jeff’s already got some incredibly fast cars in his stable, including his Mustang and GTO, which are both top contenders. While the ’57 Chevy is fast, it’s still a brick compared to the sleek, aerodynamic lines of his other cars. That said, it would be a treat to see him keep it in the lineup, considering his history with the ’57 Chevy.

A Legacy Continued
Jeff Lutz has made a name for himself with his incredible builds, and this new ’57 Chevy is no exception. It’s a stunning car that combines classic style with modern performance. Whether it ends up in someone else’s garage or stays with Jeff, there’s no denying it’s a masterpiece.
Here at Street Outlaws Talks, we can’t wait to see what Jeff does next. Will this ’57 Chevy become a permanent part of his collection, or will it find a new home? Either way, we’re excited to see this build in action and to keep bringing you the latest from the world of Street Outlaws.
Stay tuned, and as always, keep those engines revving!
