    We got our new front-end, it came from "Scott's Hotrods", it is a nice piece and I was told they have the molds from AI Fiberglass.

  12. Wow. Thank you for the compliment! I wish I saw this when it was posted back in December.

    This is one of my favorite pics of my '55 (now with reversed wheels).

    Here's a more updated picture with the reversed wheels and Caltrac bars. I'm not crazy about the looks of the Caltrac bars on the car but they sure do work.

    If you mean Steve Tanzela, it's not. Steve's motor is pretty much in the stock location/stock firewall. If you didn't mean Steve T, my apology. :)

    Makes it easy to advance the timing while sitting in the drivers seat.

    I dont see how a BBC would fit under the dash, I had trouble squeezing a SBC in there! I got a little door on the firewall I can access the Dizzy through to adjust the timing. :cool:
