    The 55 has been down for a while due to a broken land in the 327. Since i needed to build a new engine i took the time to repaint the frame and body.the new engine is a 292 with 13 to 1 compression and a solid lifter ultradyne cam. Thought i see what you guy's think of the look . [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]

    Great looking headers. I love the split on the header directly for dumps or full exhaust. Very nice.

    The Thunderbolt / Mercury looking car in the background isn't to shabby either.

  7. The finest 55 gasser yet. The stance, color, wheels, trim, scoop are all killer! Hurry up and get tired of it so I can buy it! Seriously cool man!:cool:

    Great combo on the satin silver blue and blue tinted windows. Cool stuff in the background of your pics too. Hoping for some action pics soon.
     
  9. Loks GREAT Mike. I like it all 1 color too. Badass. Are the rear wheels what you needed the graphite for?

    not bad...would like it better with the rear wheel wells radiused.....but that is just my opinion. No matter what it is a nice piece...and should be bad as hell in action!!! Action pics soon we hope......

    wheelbase has been altered 10 inchs and the engine has been set back 4 inchs.

    THANKS groucho. I was thinking that i would shoot the rear and front wheels if i doesn't look good i can just wash it off.

    THANKS i built the car were it could be driven long distance

    A great looking car! Are you willing to give some details on the build of your high compression 292? Dome size, chamber volume, max rpm's, valve train control at high rpm's, etc. I've been thinking of building a 301 sbc that I hope would see 8 grand.

    I love the '55. I really like the simple paint job and that there's no lettering.
