Re: Show us your projects

Here are a few pics of mine. I just got it back in pieces from the paint booth a few days ago...I need an even bigger garage. The truck is a 55 chev with a 59 fleetside box, with the bullet removed. The top has now been chopped 1 9/16 as well as the hood has been pie cut the same. Its running a C4 front suspension with upgraded C5 brakes. The rear is a tci four bar. The motor is a 95 Lt1 with some Lingenfelter goodies and nitrous. I'll take some pics of it painted in a few days, and of the painted frame etc.

Its 250 cubic inch and should run about 225 H.P with the stock Quadrajet, split manifold. Truck has a th350 in it now that I am replacing with a TH200/r4 transmission.

It also has a Pontiac Station Wagon Rear end in it, but not sure of gear ratio.

LT155Ruck,

Nice looking 55. It really looks good with that bed on it. My question is: Did you make those inside front fender wells and if not do you know if the company you got them from makes them for a 54? Keep up the good work.
