Memorial Day with the flag flying out front.

Removed the surfer's crosses and the slanted-H Hurst decals and replaced them with older c65 vertical-H Hursts and original Indianapolis '69 decals.





Then I found this cool photo from Indy '69 posted on HAMB:

Thanks Ken!

Maybe one of these days we can work a trade with that alloy-head Nova of yours.......

Nice "55" Bill,
Good luck with it. I love the Orange color, ie: red/orange
Beautiful.

[427TJ]

Thanks Richard, it looks a little more "orangy" in the photo above--the actual color is called Flame Red. That paint hs been on the car since at least the 1970s.

Is it just me or has anyone else noticed the nice job done on the wheelwells here, what a difference!
Before..



After..

Add the change of wheel and tire combination, Bill, this car is just killer!

Bart, are you trying to give me a case of "cutter's remorse" or what??? It sure looked neat with the slots but I had to have a gasser-look '55 just once in my life. Had it out today for a quick blast around town and had the 327 up around 4500 a few times working through the gears. A 4.88 Dana 60 is coming soon...

Bart was talking about your 55 on Saturday...needless to say...he loves it!

As do I!
