    I bought my 56 in 94 and it sat many years. It was rusty, no engine or trany or interior. 3 out of 4 windows cracked. in 06 I put a used engine in it that ran on 7. then it sat some more until I put a new engine in it in 2013. It has been on the road since. Trany changed from T350 to a 2004R to a Tremec 5 speed. rear end is a 57 housing with a posi 373. 56-13.jpg

    Thanks for the pictures. Nice color and the black seats really look good with the green.

    the color on the car was bought online at TCP. They called it rally green but when I opened the can of paint it was not. IMO. It was very bright green so I added a quart of black to a gallon of the green to tame it down a bit, it has metal flake and I think a bit of peril in it.
