Sorry but I don't have a Chevelle. My grandfather bought this sedan on December 23, 1954. He passed away in 1976 and the car went to my father. My father passed away in 1986. I've had the car ever since.

I did mod it just a bit. :rolleyes:

That car is gorgeous. That's great it's stayed in the family all these years.

I had 10 55 at one time got piss they were rusting away sold them all kicked my self many many times since then. They were one of my favorites.But my El Camino won out.Still have it after 36 years

sweet '55!

Sweet,

I wish my 55 was back together. :(

A 55 chevy 2 dr sedan was my first car I put a 348 w 3 2s in and fixed it up paint wheels interior sol it for 850 to buy a new 66 ss 396 thought I made a killing I do love those 55 s

I have to say again what a beautiful car that is. We had a 55 Nomad when I was a kid. I was only 7 when my father died and the Nomad is the car I associate with him. My mother had other cars after that but they were just cars.

I still remember my father and grandfather patching the rust and repainting it. Right after that we went on a family vacation in it. We pulled into a motel parking lot and a sewer cover flipped up and mashed the rocker panel right at the front fender/door seam. Couldn't even open the driver's door. I was pretty young but I know my father was pissed after all the work they had just done on the car.

I can guarantee you that pictures do not do it justice.
