Nick, don't get a 55 they're poo :repuke😀

There is a pretty cool, ratty but complete oval going on ebay, great Rat body, ditch the pan and crap which is rusty anyway, sell off some parts and it could be a good buy, in Brissie too. Watch it, might end up being what you are after for the right $$$$.

nothin, just pulling his chain, 54's are only just better, but not by much, 55's rock, I love mine!

Nick, well give him back his 58 body and ask him nicely for the oval.....do you know what his reserve is for the oval???

just remember if you do get a 54-55 make sure everything is there... parts are getting hard to find!

michael - not sure of the reserve. id imagine 2k. am not interested in a complete car as yet due to various parties who have body's only that they are wanting to get rid of.

appreciate the heads up though.

thanks also T54.
