sorry about the late reply,,,but yes they are worth a bit as a collectors item,when done rite because there are not many left (chevys first V8) if you dont already know
@iheartmy55 thats alright, I found one laying in a part of woods i own believe it or not, i think it woul dhave to be hot tanked with acid since theres some decent rust damage in the cylinder walls thanks for the reply anyway, how much do you think I could get for it?
Brings back memories, bought a 4 dr. 56 as a driver, while I built my 55 2dr ht. grey with a black top. Raced that car at any drag strip I could get to. It was 13 years old when I started driving it, Built SBC, Wish I had it back. Besides being a great driving and running car, most fun I had with it was steaming the inside of the windows on a cold winter night with my girl. What I wish I would have done was take pics of it--- we never dreamed the cars like that would be replaced with turds.
nice, ive got a two door post that i was going to do in the sem hot rod black but decided to do a american graffiti clone the hood all ready has the scoop becuse it previously had a high rise tunnel ram intake. still like the flat black though.
@iheartmy55 hey man why not radius the rear fenders and put on some old wide tracks like the twolane blacktop/american graffiti 55,yours is a 4dr but who cares.never seen a 4dr 55 like that
yeah im probly eventually going to do something like that,with the tunnel high rise intake manifold and everything,,,youll never see another 265 sbc like it lol
Great looking '55. My brother and I just picked up a 2 door post and he posted some video it is titled: 1955 chevy shoebox betty. Keep up the good work, it is looking awesome.
amazing what a can of spray paint can achieve. i dig that matte black finish. car looks bad ass.

@chevygearhead454
well,,,for a bare block,there not worth much, maybe 200-800$
but when rebuilt nicely they can be worth anywhere from 2500 to 3k
