    WOW...Thanks yall for the kind words...To answer some questions :GotGas, from what I was told is it was raced in Mass. in the 60's and 70's, but the funny part is the straight axle was put in after its race days, sometime in the 90's... Chilli Phil, I havent brought it to the track yet, just got it done and running right, it seems fast, but Its fast.... Groucho, I have no idea yet... I was going for more of a GOLD, but I like this color ALOT, its a nice 60's color in my oppinion.

    Paint can be bitter-sweet... A lot of guys work really hard to fuck up a great car with a lousy color choice. I don't know how you came up with honey-gold, but it's perfect. Very well done.

    Now just wait to see how long it is before you see it on someone elses 55!!

    Looks great. I have already added your pics to my Tri-Five Gasser pics (see the link below).

    Will look forward to seeing it lettered and updating the pics collection.
