Yeah, I was just BS'ing with that. I guess my sarcastic voice isn't prominent enough lol but, I love the story of Benz' wife stealing it and driving the car like 100 miles or something to prove that it was feasible. And even breaking down and fixing it on the side of the road herself. Thats one of my favorite automotive stories ever
Personally I would do a F body or late model nova front clip, way more parts selection and more of a proven modification, that Alston thing you have looks a little light to be under a full frame car…
Death row is definitely my favorite my mom had one as a teen and the way she talked about that car is the reason I lovecars today .... but I been seeing this 55 in the background for a long time and we finally get a video on lfg thanks for the video bro
Karl Benz invented the first Motor Car, Henry Ford's just started the first assembly line
O ya the first 3-wheeled wagon, back in my day we added turbskis to em 😂

Olds was right there also
@@SniderTron3000yeah that was a pretty solid sales pitch and worked out in his favor pretty well
Thanks for the update. My first car in 85 was a 55 sedan!
Glad to see you back and having a more solid for the 55. I know how the cold slows progress down
Great to see some action on the 55 how about Black primer the car shoot a transparent blue pearl mid coat over it and clear it with flat clear. Mean.
I love it! Now is the time for this project!
Hell yea Josh been waiting for the 55
Hell ya been patiently waiting for a video.
For that frame you got id say throw a old jeep tub on it and make a sick rat rod ....
Dam where are you for it be that cold
Michigan, USA
Nothing gets me stiff like a priest at a boys camp more than a 55!
Best comment I've seen on the internet all week.
Great Choice My friend !!!!
So will finally learn how dom controlled the car with out the front clip and if it's possible?
This is going to make a great looking car 👍👍
Hell yeah 😎
Glad you didn’t just jump in and start cutting
Take old frame off throw that under go from there
Maybe buy a 30/31 model A/Tudor, and use that chassis on the Model A body.....just sayin lol
I kinda want to find some small Import car to put this under and back half and make a pretty rowdy low buck drag car
What u use to clean your frame
I just scuffed it with some 320 grit and then sprayed it with Steel-It
Did you decide to use the fiberglass front end?
Nah, its hanging on the wall for now
@@SniderTron3000 if ya ever decide to let it go I'd be interested for my 55 gasser project 🤘
Great video!!!

Can't wait to see this thing done
Can't beat a 55 h/t
Awesome 55
We’ve had .660s break before and those inner springs are life savers lol
Lol I've been on the opposite side of that wishing I had the inner springs
I agree, our MI weather has been sucking lately, good call on keeping the stock frame and just doing a ladder bar setup, should be waaaay easier!
I'm depressed you better make me smile... good job
Skylark wheels are everything. never change them
I go back and forth on them a lot lol
