    Nice find. They still out there. Cool colour combo. You can buy fender fronts and weld in. Front clip was painted at another factory. That’s why they all off colour. Just clean up. kitty hair it and rattle can to match. Better a survivor. Good luck👍👍.

      This is my first time watching and I looking forward to seeing more of you videos. I wish I could do something like this but I have medical issues and enjoy watching other people fixing up cars that I remember as a kid growing up. I from ILLINOIS but looking forward to see how the Chevy comes together. Thanks 😊.

      ​@@deepsouthclassics9446my daughter is called Indian Ivory and Sierra gold. I could be wrong. I only own the same car the same color for a few decades parrot it's been family since it was new. It looks a little better than this one just to put it in proper context. It's only 98,000 miles would it take it would look better. I probably should have sold at 10 years ago when I had this fabulous offer. Right away anybody can like a 57 and 55 in Texas special person to love the 56. That's my favorite part of the three by the way. Great Haul

      It doesn’t appear to have been wrecked, I think the hood was probably taken off when they started disassembling the top of the engine. Thanks for watching
