[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 4258688, member: 15054"] No reason someone should have much money in this 55. Unless you just like to spend money and let other people do everything for you. I have built many junked out cars by myself and never started with anything as nice as this 55. I have never had more than $4,700 tied up in the entire car including purchase price. You just have to be smart and do things yourself. My 1956 4 door was really straight I stuck a 200" Ford straight 6 and C4 in it and got 21 MPG with the 3.55 gears. I had 2,500 in it and paid 900 for it. Great driver and way more pep than the old 283 and glide. Of course the weight reduction and the lower gear in the 3 speed trans vs the glide. [/QUOTE]
