Welcome to the site, congrats on the new purchase. I love the pin striping. My only suggestion is to lose that fuel filter. They are a fire looking for a place to happen.

Wow! Nice! Can you tell us any more about the car? What mods besides the motor swap? How does she drive? Looks like a nice score.

Didn't get much info from the twenty eight year old rich kid that sold it to me. His dad made him sell it didn't fit in at the country club housing and the new 911, Benz and Range Rover in the drive way. Pinstripping has a date of 93' on the back, Front disc brakes, 455 Olds unknown year. Still need to check brakes and suspension runs great but needs bushings. Posi rear end Burns rubber like a BEAST.

Thanks for the feed back everyone!

Should have a (and probably does have) a late model master cylinder and booster installed as all of the new disk brake conversions won't support the use of a Treadle Vac master.... Just a thought ... Tedd

Good looking 55. Looks like someone put a lot of work into it. Should be fun. What rear end is it ?
