My son Zach has been wanting to get a tri five two door. He has been scrounging for cheap cars. Here are pictures of his latest find? Its pretty rough but a cuban with a 55 gallon drum of bondo could easily fix it up:rolleyes: Randall

Terry He gave $200.oo with a title . The powerglide looks like the flex plate center broke and damaged the adapter? he has also bought a 55 for $100.oo . We will probably go fetch it home Sunday. He wants to build a stripped to the bare bones gasser no interior just one seat and a roll bar.:cool: Randall

Zack tried to sigh up but for some reason kept getting a error saying that the anti spam verification image was incorrect . Any way we went and weed eated and took pictures of the 55 and 56,s he hopes to combine into one car. All of these vehicles you can do the Freddy Flintstone thing easy. Any way he can have or use any part or tools that we have. As long as he lets me drive it a few times! Randall

Randall,
Tell Zack to not let anything or anyone cloud his dream of building his gasser.
When I was a little younger I built a couple cars that started out just as rough or rougher it will take time and a lot of blood sweat and tears but in the end it will be his dream and he will have completed it himself.

Yesterday afternoon the sun came out. So here is what got done to the black 55 four door. It is in the worst shape of the two 55 four doors so it was picked to do the two door conversion The rockers are pretty solid but the floors are shot. probably would have been a solid car had the glass not been broken out years ago. The last picture we caught my wife Debbie in the wagon.:D she says we have to put air conditioning in it. She still wants to keep the four speed though:tu We are going to pick up a rough $100.oo 55 2 dr this afternoon at Mammoth Spring Ark.:D Randall

Thanks for the pics Randall! Looks like Debbie already has "air conditioning" by means of no front windshield!:moddhappychevelle22

Don Debbie is in the 55 wagon pictured in my avitar. She has taken it away from me. Was my drag car. She wants it to become her daily driver. The door glass and vent window need replacing but it does have a windsheld. the car runs and drives but is to recieve a 327 and paint very soon. Randall

From this pic it looked like the windshield was missing.

Sure you'll be able to get something together with the other parts you salvaged :tu

:cool:put the 55 clip on the 56 body will look pretty kool as a gasser like that The 56 will have to have a 55 front cap. All of the 56 fenders We have are in poor condition. We have a good supply of 55 fenders most of them need eyebrow patches though. Randall
