    well thats good to hear haha no reach around but i had to deliver the A to kansas. the 56 needs some things though like shocks and the front and rear emblem but its over all a really solid car
     
  7. Well atleast you both are happy with the trade.

    Ditto! The design of those cars is real easy on the eyes, and in mho, they have one of the best looking dashes ever. You done good!:D

    I like the A better, now if this is for daily driving I'd take the 56 . But as a hot rod the A is my choice... but that's just me and I ain't you.

    I got the car from mulvane kansas. I plan on redoing the suspension because it rides really bad. I'm going to straighten out the body a little better and do a gloss black with a flake roof, spot lights, lake pipes, chrome reverse wheels, and finish out the interior, but before I do anything as of last night I need to put a new tranny in it because out of no where it was like it jumped into park while driving and now it has no gears at all everything is like neutral. It has a 302 with a c4 in place of the y block though so should be pretty easy getting a tranny
