    Heres mine the day I brought it home from Oakland. It looks the same but I re did the brakes master cylinder to drums, dropped and cleaned up the gas tank and been cleaning everything like madd. The engine and ****** are almost ready to drop in just waiting on a few parts. Can't wait to start it up for the first time!

    And here is the front on a future barn find :eek:

    It's a 57 Nomad parked in a small shed with no windows back in the 70's after it was fully restored. The owner drove it a few times after he finished was afraid it would be stolen or damaged so he shoehorned it into a small shed, where it sits. He can't even get into now, I could barely squeeze in beside it and I am a skinny guy....

    Bout the only shot I could get of it, I drop hints when I see him which isn't often since he isn't near me.... to let me get it running for him, but he has watched to many B...J.... and thinks it is worth more than it is, so it still sits. :mad:

    Here's a few of a 56 2dr that's in the shop for a frame off redo. We should be starting on it in 2-3 weeks. It will look totally different when it leaves here.:)

    Heres my '57.
    The b&w picture is from Bakersfield in 1970 running G/MP, it was later run in D/Gas with a Hilborn injected small block. The color pic is after I found the car in 2006.

    Hey squirrel, did you paint your 55 or did you photoshop in your avatar?

    Here is mine. I bought it off the HAMB about six months ago. Used to belong to a founding member of the Madera Clutchers. Trying to keep it traditional.

    The yellow '55 above is just right. Makes me think I need to keep one of my '55 hardtops to build.

    both. First I painted the car, then I took a new pic of it from the same angle, and photoshopped it in.
