    been a member for a long time, lurking mostly
    Recently sold the 67 Camaro I had owned since 1987 to get something a little more my style
    1955 Ford Customline

    pic from the first look

    found on craigslist.... took me 3 weeks to talk them down to a decent price
    it's got the original 6 cylinder/3 on the tree
    was repainted black (horribly btw) in the late 80's or early 90's... interior was redone in black at that time and still looks decent
    bonus is an aftermarket a/c (from 60's we think) that still works
    plans are to be a mild 50's custom

    haven't done much but get it running and driving as it had pretty much been sitting for 10+ years (occasionally driven)
    Put some bias ply Cokers on it and plan on doing airbags for the right stance

    other plans are metal flake roof and dash, nosed and decked, custom grill and then fixing the terrible paint/adding some stripes
