    As a kid I also saw a 55 chev and it became another dream car. G***er style. So when I could finally buy one I did. The body was rust free and I told the guy selling it I would keep it the way it was but everything under and inside would be new. So here it is. The car was last drivin in 1967 and the stickers on the bumpers said Camp Pendleton 1966. So obviously military but that's all I know. I've tried to keep it period correct for early g***er with lifted original suspension. Built 396 and m22 rock crusher with 57 olds rear. I've drivin it all over. It's Maiden voyage being 900 miles with the at***ude if it breaks it breaks. 3 years and 11,000 miles I'm still having fun

    Just noticed your Falcon console. Looks great between the 'flake seats.

    Way cool. So the front suspension, is it just ball joint spacers and taller springs?

    Noooooo. Don't say that. This is only up about 6-7 inches, not the street freak nose bleed section
