Here is my 55. Nothing fancy, yet.

gonmad · 03-02-2009, 06:49 PM

here is my buddies 55

pickupman55 · 03-02-2009, 07:04 PM

Here is my 1955 Dodge C3-B8 pick up. The first picture is what it looked like the day I bought it, and the rest are some steps along the way of the full restoration. It's powered by a 259ci poly with 3 on the tree. The truck was in amazing shape when I got it hardly any rust, just a few spots on the bottom of the doors and a couple on the floor of the cab. The truck should be complete by the beginning of this summer.

**Hyfire** · 03-02-2009, 07:05 PM

Richard! Wow... Good to see you here.

Glad you still got a '56!

Animal · 03-02-2009, 07:48 PM

Wow! Back when I started my '56 Belvedere project, I almost never saw or heard about 56's on the HAMB. I love the '56 body, miss mine. Here are some pics for those who haven't seen it....it's in the Netherlands now.

mongo51 · 03-02-2009, 07:56 PM

This is cool I've just started building a 55 Coronet. Any one know were I can get a kit to put a 318 in it? Also how have you guy been lowering them? I was going to cut coils on the front and use blocks on the rear.The 318 I have to put in it is out of an 82 Dippy.
thanks

Joatha · 03-02-2009, 08:04 PM

For some reason, I've developed a real affinity for these cars. I never really paid attention to them until recently and I find them to be real good-looking cars with nice lines. I sure wouldn't mind having one someday.

jrod1955 · 03-03-2009, 09:04 AM

Has any one every heard of fiberglass front fender for a 55 or 56 plymouth? I found one set and bought them. Any body heard of another set?

Squablow · 03-03-2009, 03:47 PM

That blue and white hardtop is lookin' clean. Is it bagged? The ride height looks great.

MrBelvedere2 · 03-04-2009, 01:32 AM
