    Looks like at one time someone did some beating on the firewall for valve cover and distributor clearance; probably for a BBC. Too bad it sat for so long; looks like there was leaves or pine needle covering to roof and beltline. Welcome to the Tri-Five fold. I have a friend that deals in 55-57 Chevrolet cars AND parts; if you need parts, PM me. Butch/56sedandelivery.

    Not a bad start ... I started a 40 Ford with less ... you build a car the same way some one eats an elephant. One bite at a time.
