    I remember your car was well into the 10's. Is it tamed down a bit?

    Door rubber won't fix the huge gap between the door and rocker panel.

    Not a great picture, but this was my wife's '56 Victoria back in about 1990. She sold it to the original owner shortly after this picture was taken, and he still owns it today !! It sported a very nasty 292 4sp combo that worked great. Nancys 56.jpg

    I might add that about this time, Nancy bought a '55 2-dr sedan that's only modification was the addition of '55 Pontiac side trim. Looked like it belonged. A fellow bugged her for months to sell him the car, and said just name a price. So she did, and it was just twice what she had paid for it. He gave her the cash, she handed him the title, and then he just had to gloat. Lady I just got into your knickers big time. That is a very rare '55 Ford. That side trim was a special order, and only a few had it. She just smiled, and said "oh well, shit happens"..... We saw the critter at Pleasanton the next year, and guess what...... No side trim !!!!!
