Re: Not a muscle car but my next project
Not sure how I missed this post, LOVE the 55 and agree that you should think about doing something along the lines of what's there once you paint it!

Re: Not a muscle car but my next project
Actually thinking about going with a gold or sunburst color. But it is going to be a satin color nothing shiny. This car is going to be a driver. But of coarse I am doing a frame off lol. The car needs a floor pan and most likely a trunk pan. I'm going to fix all rust issues with some suspension upgrades. Spent most of the day getting interior and glass out of car. The glass was a chore by itself.

Re: Not a muscle car but my next project
Jason since you are going to upgrade the suspension...it's a perfect candidate for a Gasser. Stefano can help you out if need be. Just saying! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/

Re: Not a muscle car but my next project
Moving along... I got the body off the frame today. Very happy how the frame looks I actually got every bolt out except 2. I needed to use the torch.
 Looks like it has a 62 center section.

Re: Not a muscle car but my next project
I've been picking away at the 55. I added aftermarket side motor mounts and rear transmission mount to the frame. I'm also running 2" drop spindles with tubular control arms. I mocked all this up before painting. Time to start re-assembling.

Re: Not a muscle car but my next project
Very nice project!!! I just got my 1st 55 last year (a 210 2 door), it was on the top of my bucket list as I never had 1, I had 2 56's and 2 57's over the years! Best of luck, looks great!

Re: Not a muscle car but my next project
I’ve been pushing along on the project. I Installed the motor last night, now to get the rear-end back together. I’m hoping to have it rolling by the end of the month.
