Calling it done, warts and all. Did not come out as planned, had a few set backs, but it's ok. I lost one of the front turn signal lights moving it to the photo spot, have not found it yet. And I noticed the rear bumper is a crooked, I'll need to fix that. I used the 67 Chevelle Pro Street frame, only took a little modification to fit under the 55 body, and the wheels and tires are from the Chevelle. I also used the BBC engine from the same kit. It fit ok but there was not enough room at the front of the engine bay to mount a fan without it hitting the radiator, so I flipped the radiator and added a electric fan to the front. I've seen this done in 1:1 and the fan has to be a pusher, not a puller. Paint is Createx Phat Halo Green.

Great looking build. I like how you adapted the chassis to this body, and it looks like it belongs here.

Looks good James.  Get that rear bumper straightened and call it done.

Thanks Mike.
