    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

    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

    Yes the dash is great but i like the clear bubble on top of the gauge cluster that the 55 had.

    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 ****** 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 ******
