It would be great to meet some of you.

I am looking for 2 headlight buckets and trim rings as well as portholes. My portholes are very badley pitted and the headlight rings are missing. Let me know if you have any suggestions.

Has anyone dealt with them. I emailed them last week about some pieces I was looking for and haven't heard from them. Do they take a while to get back to you? Any input would be great.

My 55 Special is a late model year car. It has a 56 color mist green. How can I tell if they put a 322 in?

I got a couple of 4 ton jack stands(that should hold up the Special) and a Dewalt grinder. I am also expecting a couple of fenders to arrive any day now. To bad it is to cold to put them on.

I am wondering if the front fenders from a 55 Century will fit on a 55 Special?

Tom?

Thanks

What would be the best way (least expensive) to ship 2 front fenders from a 55 special. I need to ship them from the west coast to the east coast.

Thanks for your input
Michael

Sorry Royce, I was thinking of the mid sixty models. Glad someone set me straight.

The Shylark is a full frame car. As far as front or rear stear I believe they are front but not 100% sure on that.

Michael

The Special is a 40 series
Century is a 50 series
Super is a 60 series
Roadmaster is a 70 series

Hope this helps
