    I'm embarr***ed lol... guess I will stop posting on my 55 Ford Blog. :(

    Just Kidding!

    Man those photos are great - excellent work! I am going to have to look back through your posts here and see what you did with that front end. What brakes are you going to use?
    This car looks like it is going to handle like a brand new one!

    Wow, I didn't know Wilwood made a kit for our cars...nice!

    Can you post a pic of the exhaust from the rear? I want to see how you hung the mufflers.
