Yeah, he liked the wheels with no caps too. he said it would lay rubber in all gears. It may exist today but we don't know. he wrecked it and it went to a yard...

My Parents in November of 68. That was Dads 55. the first 2 pictures were taken on bankhead Pkwy in Huntsville. The rock wall is still there today. It is the road going up the mountain... I wish he still had that 55. I wish Mom was still around sometimes too. Lou Gehrig's took her from us at 40 years old..

Super 8 movie camera, reel to reel tapes and some albums . I still have that old camera and the reel to reels. I think this is around 68-69

Here's me in `78 or `79 along I-75 near Valdosta, GA
Distributor locked up and had to get it running long enough for a trip to the wrecking yard for a replacement.



Here's my wife (fiance at the time) holding up the replacement distributor.
