Thanks 👍

Thanks...we are having fun..now to fix the issues

In my opinion the engine combo should be a high winding 327 backed up by a Muncie M22

Thanks thats the plan right now.. next video were gonna look at the 2 engines I got with it

Oh damn, there goes another hood

@@stevemenold9263 watch the upcoming video..a 2nd hood shows up

We hope you have healed and all is well with you.

Hope all is ok with you Bobby..i missed so many of these comments i apologize for the delay

Had 4 heart attacks ,still working. Don't let that stop you.that dreamcar will keep you alive

I like the rear wheels, that's period correct, he can use the money to put seats in that are comfortable, since it'll be a street car

Was lucky to get the original bench with it!!

I dig those 52s

@@cavemangarage I guess I sold my 52 to cheap, because I saw it on Craigslist one week later for 11,000 and he never done anything to it. Hope you are doing good with the 55. Stay safe.P.S. I sold it for 7500.

@@Chevy-cz9ge damn! Follow my other videos and exploits lol

Thank you something about these 55s ain't it

@@cavemangarage man really that’s the truth! I don’t know what it is but it’s something special ! Is that a 68-69 Torino on your homepage header ?

@@StreetCarChronicles that is my wife's 69 Fairlane with a 427 Windsor in it

@@cavemangarage badass! I had a 69 fastback in high school. Always liked those cars.

@@StreetCarChronicles that's cool yeah she's the Ford nut in the house so I built that car for her if you look down through the videos You'll see some of us and some shenanigans

Think I'm gonna keep it for awhile

@@cavemangarage my wife won't let me have another car until I sell one. But you are one lucky guy

I had it together with a 406 and the 4spd..now its gonna be a blown 468 with a 4spd

@@cavemangarage GOOD FOR YOU ! I know there were a lot of Small Block Gassers back in the day but most of the real successful or most imitated were all Big Blocks. My Cousin is getting softer by the day because he sees that I'm still Drag Racing and would take excellent care of the car and would do my absolute best to keep it as it was when we were young. Just this past February he asked me if I was sure I had shop space for that car since it's never been parked out doors and I assured him that if I knew I was getting the car....the only time it would be outdoors was at a Gasser stick shift Drag Race where it will get raced or a Car Show...and he definitely seems to be showing signs it's about to transfer ownership from him to me ! It's that deep big metal flake Blue and has all its original glass, and his old Bell Motorcycle Helmet that was painted with the exact same paint is actually still in the car yet ! When we spoke the other night after I posted to you about your beautiful 55 he told me the glove box of the 57 is stuffed full of time slips from all the drag strips that he and that car has raced at. He looked just the other day checking to make sure it starts, and the mice haven't found a way in the building and into the car (which thank God they haven't.) So he went and put a new battery in the trunk by the beer keg fuel cell they used to have back then and he says it turned over twice and fired right up. The old Carter electric fuel pump was dripping a bit and a couple of other tiny little things need replaced or repaired but all 4 tires were still full of air and the engine ran kinda rough for the first little bit but after it got up to temp setting there running it ran perfectly. If we get down there or when it comes home with us I will get hold of you and get you some photos and maybe a short video or 2. This. Car has the 427, Edelbrock tunnel ram and a pair of Holley 750s on it. An Aluminum Borg Warner 4 speed trans (and a whole half pickup bed load of spare trans parts lol) 2nd Generation Mr.Gasket inline shifter. Mallory dual point distributor, The American Made Fender well exit Hooker Headers back when they were really good parts still. Slide and tilt steel front clip, Ansen Sprint wheels in back with Cheater Slicks Mounted to them....and the fronts are regular skinny Firestone bias ply tires and some sort of spoked front rim I can't identify yet but will if and when it's in our hands.

@@IRONHORSE427RACING that sounds like pure Heaven ❤ check out my other videos of the work we are doing on the 55 and the new engine...would love to see pics of that car

@@cavemangarage I am building a 427 Big Block (nice dependable 10.5:1 street Engine with the original Zora Duntov 460 horse 427 Cam specs) for my neighbor to put in his 67 Camaro he bought last summer and I was just showing him tbe videos as a matter of fact. Very beautiful car. I would give my left ah-hum for a real old school 210 55 that I could Make into my idea of a Gasser !

I'm hearing that alot lol

Thanks brother!

Yes I did I put a 406 and a four-speed in it. Look through my videos you will see a lot of content about this little 55 and where it's headed to thanks for stopping by

I just did a walk around video

Wherever this car was stored nothing got in it which is amazing

Thanks and I hope I don't disappoint

@@cavemangarage you got this

Thanks

That's the plan!

Was all my life since I was a kid

I like both cars which are the same but how wheels change a car

It will be a stick what the engine will be is undecided

Check out my later videos I got the car up and running

Thank you I really am in love with this car I've always loved the 55 but now that I have 1 0 boy

@@cavemangarage Oh yeah 55's are glorious automobiles. I really love my 58 del Rey two-door sedan too she was originally 283 car but I've got a slightly worked up probably 300 horse 350 in there now with a 4-speed Muncie 373s 4 wheel SSC disc brake. It's a fun little cruiser much like your car . Farnout man I'm glad you got yourself a nice little 55 rust ain't nothing. That's just the nature of the beast brother 👍✌️
