Nothing procured yet Mitch. I have an option on a decent 210 roller project but still looking around in case I find a better 210 car to build. Planning a black and white 210 Delray street machine build. Waffle interior, bench seat, stick, 456 posi and will transfer some of the day 2 parts onto it as well.
Do you have something available?

I have a super clean '54 210 2 dr from Wyoming...
 Mostly original paint and patina "to die for"...  I know, wrong year for most people. I'd like to keep it, but I probably won't live long enough to finish building it to running/driving. It DOES have a '55 rear axle under it...

Bigger car, just more air space. Check out the shipping weights of a '69 Camaro and a 1955 Chevrolet...identical at 3,300#. Yes, there will be slight differences for engine and trans combo's but, but nothing to warrant more hp than he will be installing...

Great build Graeme. I have enjoyed following along. Everything is all tucked away here in the prairies too. I was wondering what brand of cover that is on your car. I am looking for a new one.
Thx Oliver

Thanks Oliver.
Onyx indoor car cover. I like them so much I bought two of them. Check around and normally you can find a deal w/ free shipping in the US. I got two of them shipped to Montana with my parts orders and picked them up down there to save on shipping. (eBay Link) Maybe email them and ask if they can ship it Parcel Service with USPS from Michigan.

Yup, I built one about 10 years ago and found the weights were very similar to Camaro's.

I am very happy that the Can/US border has reopened to us now. I made my way down to Montana today and picked up some needed engine parts for the 302 along with some new tires. Big thanks to Scott and Rich for the parts, and a huge thanks to Mr. Day 2 for intercepting the rally wheel at MCACN before packing it up and arranging to have it shipped over to me. Great packaging and this was very much appreciated!!!
Now to get the rubber mounted onto some Rally Wheels. (Early Christmas)
