These are pictures of the last time this car will be in our family. My dad rebuilt it 19 years ago and has logged 20,000 miles in that time. He is selling tomorrow

Regarding photo #2....I'm disappointed you didn't flash any signs.
I have no good photos of my experiences with the Boy Scouts in New Orleans......trying to get them to stop flashing signs in the photographs, and to get them to smile for the camera, was an impossible task---irrespective of race, I might add.

nah. We are too "gringo" to be able to pull something off like that

Did your Dad decide it was time to sell it for any particular reason?

He is building a '71 convertible(I can't remember which model off the top of my head), which will become his new cruiser, and he decided that he didn't want to build a garage to store cars that he was not going to drive very much.

That's a good reason for doing so.
Still, it would be tough to give up that Chevy.

I wish I had a picture of what it started out as, then you could see why my mom is almost in tears letting it go. He wanted the '55 because it was the year he was born.

If I was going to get a car that was built the year I was born, for a Chevy, it would be the '64 Impala; for a Ford, it would be a Falcon (unless I could go with the 64 1/2 Mustang) and for a Dodge, the Charger.
How 'bout you?

'73 Convertible Firebird or Mustang Fastback. I am not much of a Dodge fan, but a Charger would be great as well. I like your '64 1/2 mustang though and if you were born after june it would work

How long til the insomnia and aggression go away after taking Medrol?
I'm wired and any little thing just like pisses me off. Something fell of the counter onto the floor and I want to kill someone. I know these aren't anabolic, but damned if I'm not as irritable as a hospital receptionist.
