    Down from a motorcycle crash for the last 3 months. Got to work on the '56 today for the first time since I drug it home. Cleaned all the trash and mouse shit out of it. Put in a new battery and ignition and it fired right up. Crazy ass wife cutting donuts in the driveway in the snow.

    Lots of work left but thought I would throw out some pictures.

    Gonna throw on a cheap set of stealies to replace those god awful wheels for now. Car has an old school front disc brake conversion that needs some attention. After that make sure it's road worthy and drive it.
     
  8. Congrats on being up & around, and cool '56. Keep posting pics. Remember what Homer says...

    'Mmm...Donuts...'
