Hi from NC
New member of forum. Glad I found it, am now the proud owner of 1955 Chevy and my current project, "Mabel". She is a mix of every kind, bought her that way and have only just started the work. As is, 55 body, ford 9" rear end, olds 445 hot-rodded with the usual internals and work, Nova (I think) front clip. She came looking better than she was mechanically, and I have since rebuilt the engine and am working on installing a new wiring harness and gas tank. Hope to have her back on road in 3 weeks (start of September at latest)
