Projects 55 Pontiac 2dr HT Stocker to Mild Custom Build, More Updates!

Lookin good!

 

Thanks guys, Progress is being held up now by getting 2 new water pumps that were put in the wrong box. So right box and # but wrong pump, twice! Hope to have it back on the road next week and will post more pics.

 

nice looking poncho dude! love the 55's. rocking the back bumper and wheel covers off the same car for my chevy build.

 

Thanks, yes I had that rear bumper and the same side trim on my 54 Ford and it worked great and fit perfect

 

that's kool! that nose looks real high up, what's on the front?

 

Its a 58 T-bird bumper and grill. Thanks, that car has been that way since the late 50's

 

oh wow! theres nothing better on this earth than a actual vintage kustom.

 

Finally got it outside today and drove it. Needs a few minor adjustments but I think the stance is perfect!

 

Been waiting for the outside profile shot. Looks reeeeaaaal good. Definitely likeing the stance. Nice job.

 

Looks great, I love original cars.....

 

OOooooooh nice!!!!

 

Thanks guys, going to work on some more subtle changes and will post pics when there is noticeable changes.

 

Been working on a couple of things on the inside, knobs, got a couple more to go.
Sorry for the bad pics!

 

Any 'ol shmo can restore a car, it takes a real man (or woman) to customize one.......as spoken by the Beacon of Blocks

 

Next! Exhaust tips! Mocked up.

 

Damn Toast, that is purdier than my '55 2 door sedan! Mine is dropped 3" but I put air shocks and a pump on the back. Does fine on the road as long as I don't have back seat passengers.

 

looks GREAT! man you nailed that stance big time.

 

Thanks guys, I got my 55 Plate somewhat restored, registered to the car and installed it this morning. Looks right at home.

 

A '55 plate that says 1955 on it?!
You got lucky finding that one

The car is looking really good, man.
The plate is a great detail.

Thanks, I thought it was kinda coll too. Also I traded a 32 for the 55

 

Great looking car, and the stance is spot on!

 

Beautiful day here today, took the Pontiac for a 20 mile drive to test out the new ride height on bumps and dips. It does hit the bump stops more than I wold like but thats what they are there for. At least it doesn't effect how it drives. Motor seems to be holding up and its a little quieter valve train wise after adjusting them.

 

Got the new exhaust tips on today, I like them!

 

Looks really good .Looks to have tinted windows.I had a 2 dr post with Americans on it,loved the look 1 1/2 coil off the ft and 2'' blocks on the rear.
I have an extra set of side stainless like on the 54 if any one is interested.

 

Thanks, no need for trim at this time. I dropped mine 2.5" front and 3" rear

 

Great car.

 

I love your car.
Glad it went to someone with taste.

 

This style is not my favorite but yours looks REAL GOOD.

 

Very nice.

 

Man that's a gorgeous car, best to you!
