Cool car. Very cool. I've always wanted a '55/'56 Pontiac 'vert. Red and white, slammed, chrome rims, baby moons, pinner whites, red top and red and white tuck n roll.

looks like a nice solid car.
Obviously you know what you're in for having done the black one in terms of cost, parts and bad areas.
That black car looks beautiful.
Talented.:congrats:

Very nice - pretty rare I'd bet.

Our family car when I was a kid was a 55 Pontiac 2 dr post car - Parent's bought it off the showroom floor - Dad ran it for 13 years before trading it in.:)
