Hey mike, kool '55 that 265 sounds good! I've been meaning to put an updated video of mine, we put a 327 and 700r4 in my '55. It runs good and it'll get it pretty good for a four door. its also my daily driver, i'm planing to make it a gasser in the future. Where do you live. I'm in Florida.

[iheartmy55]

yeah,mine a 4 door too,,,

nice.i would luv a 327 or a 350.but im not sure wut im gonna do w/ the motor in mine yet.

yeah man,im in FL to,

are you takein yours to the daytona car show on march 27-28-29??

[Kustomrust55]

no i didnt hear about it. but i am going to BilletProof car show on March 21st at Don Garlits Museum, its a Rat Rod show. im not taking my '55 but i am taking my Rat Rod. i did go to Turkey Run in November 2008, that was a really good show.

Yeah.....I bought my '50 chevy sport coupe. myself.

NOW....I'm giving it a serious face-lift.

Done ALL the work myself too.

Replacing the panels, chopping the top when I get out of basic. I already put in a '69 camaro front end and X-frame, and now I'm building a MPFI 327. And a TH400.

Tell him I said good luck with it!

The car suits him!

[Kustomrust55]

Hey its Mario. Thanks for the comment! Ive been meaning to put a updated video. This past summer we put in a '66 327 and 700r4. My plan is to make it a gasser but were working on a rat rod now. oh i forgot to mention that the '55 is my daily driver. Hope to see a video of your '50 soon.

[The66StangMan]

Nice car man. I too am 16 and restoring my first car, but i have a 66 mustang with a 200 straight 6. Lol, Even though thats a chevy, i still like it. Any way, good luck with your car.

[iheartmy55]

yeah,i was at the turkey run too,,

it gonna be just like that in the same place as the turkey run.just a little bit smaller,but not much,

im goning to try to bring my 55 to it if its primed in time

[50chevyguy]

You're welcome. I'm making my '50 into a show car, but it will be my daily driver as well.

I believe cars like this should be shared, not locked away.

I'm thinking about dropping in a BMW V12, 6spd auto tranny.

Rat style deffinately! By looking, it's more you! But hey, it's your car.

I know, I've been getting that a lot.

It'll probably be another 6-7 months before I can post a video.
