This one looks perfect to me. Thanks for posting this photo Paul.

 

327, 5 speed, 9" Ford, magnesium 5 spokes, Traction Masters, S/W, Sun, almost like High School.

 

^^^^Bitchin!

 

My bel air hardtop was the same color as Alpin's sedan...HATED that color!
Mine came with a 235/3 speed, O.D.

 

With all these pictures of very cool 55's you guys are making me want to sell my Deuce and get another 55 again. I am starting to really miss my old car now more than ever.

 

Some assembly required....

 

Two WCFB's, 2 1/2" Ram Horns, solid lifters.

 

Had mine 12 years here it is
Before:


And after

 

^^^ I liked it before and think the after would look better if it had some better front runners and more meat in the back.
(This ones not mine but its pretty cool and reminds me of your 210)

 

Here's mine. I've owned this since 1979 and just finished it's second "renovation" with a 327 bored 30 over and a 700R4 for cruising the highways. Photos are from 1979 and 2013.

 

Thanks Low Budget "both" of those are coming very soon. As mine is a very low budget build. Really like your car and choice of wheel tire combo. Hopefully mine will look more like it. Also fenderwell headers to come........someday

 

hotsam---gotta say it was pretty tough before----i think ,like said---the front runners are taking away from the look--nice car anyway

 

Nice job on the restoration! It looks great!

 

Low Budget your car is AWESOME!

 

My buddy, "Chevy Shop" Roger has owned this '55 since about 1968 (his first car). Besides the obvious it has a turbo400 and 5.13 dana60 rear. Pics are from 2008

 

Here's our old 55, my wife bought it a few years ago when I was out of town. it has a small block 400 with a 4 speed. Don't hate, we got rid of the S-10 wheels and put gray spoke ET's on it a couple of years ago.

 

Let's try again, I had the picture in the giant economy size version.

 

my hats off to your wife for showing great initiative!

 

I wish I could say that was mine but its not,Its just some pics I have saved and thought I would share with you for inspiration,I like yours tho.

 

Here is mine

 

Heres my two 55 Chevys, the Black Belair I have owned since 2000, has 95,000 original miles on it, The Twolane Blacktop style I have owned since about 2006, I bought it as an empty shell still working on it.

 

Those are really nice cars, I'd be proud to own them too!
Well done.

 

Theres some bitchin cars in here. Some TLB clones, 60's street cars, axle cars, cruisers, drag cars, and some really cool 4-doors

Bought this car for $2k in April 2010. Bone original 6/3spd, nice floors and a clean title. Now a '67 327/275, super T-10, '57 Pontiac rear w/4.10's and a Saf-T-Track.

 

Kevs56 fantastic job the pictures make it look so easy. We know it not. I like everything about the car. Looks like your in for some good times driving that 55. That's what its all about. Looks like you have plenty of other neat projects to keep you busy. Ron

 

Thanks Ron! Looking back now I wonder what I was thinkin...Maybe I shoulda just saved my pennies and bought a 2-door shell and parted the 4-door out...Ahhh well, too late now. Time to drive the wheels off it! Thanks again, Kevin

 

I remember when you first came onto the HAMB having just bought your Delivery. It's a little weird now, you have the same cars I've had; 55 4dr, 56 Delivery, 63 Biscayne..............................Vuja Da -the strange feeling this has never happened before, as opposed to Deja Vu -the strange feeling this HAS happened before. Keep up the excellent work! Butch/56sedandelivery.

 

None of these are mine, just random '55's seen around SoCal...
