Yo,
Long time lurker, new member from Chicago.
Currently have a 55 Bel-Air hardtop that I am slowly making into a cool driver (along with a few motorsickles).
Had it for about three years so far, and have no plans on selling it. I have other cars in the past, but a teal & white 55 hardtop has always been my dream car. Also one of the three founding members of Half Fast Chicago (check out the link below):
http://www.halffastchicago.com
So far the car has been lowered (adj. coil over’s up front and 2’’ blocks in rear), 57’’ Caddy caps on BFG whitewalls, full MSD ign. system, Lokar floor shifter, and other little bits. Eventually would like to car to be bagged and body dropped but cant get myself to gut the car up too bad. The car is a driver. Thing cruises 75-80mph on highway
all day long, and has enough power (barely) to leave bias ply smoke around corners. Winter plans call for either a LS1 or ZZ430..
Look forward to being an active member of the board…
