Boy she sound sweet, and a great looking 55. I love the color combo. It helps to be partial to 55 Chevy's. There just happens to be one in my garage. Owned her for 26 years.

Is that a video game in your signature or is it a real place? Looks nice.

Yes, the original photos had a 12" high sign on the yellow center line and I wanted to remove it. By doing so, I had to "fudge in" the bottom of the tires.

Unintentionally, that made it look like it was doing a 6"-8" wheelie, but in reality she would only lift the left front tire about 1"-2" off the ground.

The car had a 6.14 final gear and a 50lb steel flywheel. I would dump the clutch off the line at 6000 rpm and it would come out of the hole like rocket.

That 55 is gorgeous. I bought a worn out 55 when I was 17, mine used more oil than gas.
