Great looking Chevy. Looks like the second had ones that everyone wanted way back when and the wide whites look good on the black painted wheels. The engine is the big surprise.

A real sleeper; workman-like outside, but surprise when you pop the hood! Very nice color choice, but how could you resist 2-toning a '55??

I as well. A friend of mine had a '55 210 two door in white with an upgraded 301 cu in and a 3 speed that was really nice.

Goog looking old school 55 and a bit of a sleeper. Nice job.

That's a sleeper! Although I don't think those skinny Firestones would last very long behind that LS engine.

Nicely done!

A wolf in sheep's clothing. I like the plain Jane look without the hub caps.
