other side

Before someone comments about the little strap across the fenders and hood:

the front end was only bolted on loosely w/ a couple bolts and no hood latch. the strap was just snug enough to keep the fenders and hood from flopping around.

Anyone make patch panels for the 55 and 56's? If not - are the 55 chev panels anywhere close to massage and make work? my rockers needs replaced, and maybe one door skin.

They do make rockers, not sure about anything else

Would love to see more of your car, mostly the BB install and all the mods to make it all work. Here's my project. I'm gonna go BB or a 408 sb, either way it's gotta run!

I'd prefer a 55 (I know, picky, picky) but, the smaller fins to me look better and its a Plymouth which I prefer more too

But, the good news ..I DID FIND MY VALIANT WAGON !

Not 100% sure which way I'll go with it but, here are a couple ideas

Trying to get a good idea before I proceed
