Re: Danny Boy is BAACK! w/ '55 Big Window
For giggles, here’s what my truck looked like in Spring, 2011 as purchased. I paid $4600 for a running ‘55.2 Big window cab with 283 that had camel hump (fuelie) heads, a TH350 trans and already converted to 5x4.75 lugs. And I got some criticism for paying that much.
Followed by before and after pictures of the engine. I dropped about $2000 getting it running right. All new belts, hoses, filters, spark plug wires,converted to electronic ignition, rebuilt radiator, new Edelbrock dual plane intake, small hi torque starter. It ran great BUT had one weak cylinder.
