Finally got my 55 Pontiac and 57 Pontiac out to the great Fleetwood Country Cruize In this past June. Still needs a little tweaking here and there. Had a great time talking to people about the cars never new they made vehicles like that to the 55 looks like a Chev with a diffeerent front end.

Nice to see the '55 finally finsihed and on the road, I bet you are pleased that is done. It looks terrific too.
Don't be so modest about them though,
Doug's '57 is restored to showroom condition right down to the 261 Astro Six. The '55 on the other hand is a nice resto-mod as is pretty evident from the killer wheels and paint. What you can't see is the GM Performance Ram Jet crate engine under the hood.

I really like that white 57! Nice car. That 55' is a beaut, but seems to sit a tad high in the front!

First too low, the tire was hitting the fender then too high - now about 1 1/2 inches above the tire looks about right now.
