    Wow really neat to see your car as I know the feeling first hand. In 2015 I took my 55 out of storage almost 35 years since 1981 and drove it legally again. It felt like I was going back in a Time Machine ,HAA! Anyhoo Congrads on your 55 Chevy First Drive! ......Take care..Glenn

    That was so awesome BW, I am so happy for you, and just think how cool it will be when you dial everything in , maiden voyage’s are always a shake down, but I would say that was very successful, that freaking red light was the longest light I ever seen, lol, it never fails, well I can’t wait for the next ride, yeah baby 👍👍👍😀😀😀

    Can somebody say, "TWO LANE BLACKTOP"!! Wow congratulations on the maiden voyage BW, it sounded awesome brother!! That'll get your batteries recharged and want you to really get fired up to finish it. You might pull the thermostat and just put it in some water and heat it up on the stove and watch and see at what temperature it starts to open. I hope you are running a 160 degree. Sounds awesome on those back roads and I'm sure it was very tempting to want to put your foot into it.. haha Thanks for taking us along, this video is going to take off..

    Super 5-5 ! This car brings back a lot of memories. Late 60's, 3rd motor in my 55 210 2 door sedan was a 500+hp Corvette 331cisb. Car painted 69 Caddy Sapphire Mist blue. Best time in the quarter with 4.88's, Pontiac Muncie 4 speed, 11.96 at 114+mph. Sold the 5-5 in '70, BIG mistake, been sorry ever since.

      New Don Garlits tachs bring big money. 1500-2000 if it's new in box, that old beat up one I got was 500.
      Thanks about car compliments, built it right here at home from scratch. ✌️
