Another 55 added to the bunch.......

[RUSH55]

I had better luck with a Rochester 2 barrel than the Aisin, but Holley Snipers are all the rage these days.

 

[bobm]

Had a Rochester on Ole Red . SUCKED

Those Holley Snipers do seem like a good option to clean up the 2F. I just want to keep the exhaust clean cruising down the street. If I could find me a good 3F head I’d consider the 2-FE, but maybe the Sniper is even a better option than that.

It sounds to be a lot less hassle

This is what's planned on mine. Going to pick up the final powder coating next week for the transplant 2f, then find ways to hide funds for Holly sniper from the wife.

Sneaky, don't get caught!! I did a Whoops purchase once, didn't go well!!

 

[Megadoomer]

Quadrajunks. Just do the Sniper and enjoy it. It is pretty dummy proof.

We’ll, I figured this may happen since my daughter is driving it and parking it in a High School parking lot, we now have a new character bump on the front fender.

[scrapdaddy]

Buff right out.

 

[Gordobe]

At least the blinker didn’t get stuffed

 

[Gordobe]

My daughter had 5 fender bender in the first year. None in the next 6 years

So your saying I probably shouldn't fix this......

 

[scrapdaddy]

I remember smacking the front fender just like that on my Mother's 64 Rambler. We never did get it fixed and they gave me the Rambler when I got married later on. So, if you want to get even....

 

[bobm]

I remember hitting a Datsun 510 (in the rear.)with my 68 Chrysler Newport . Totaled the Datsun . Hit him in a Rotary . Took a long time to get that rubber mark off my Chrome bumper .

Maybe wait this year out before you decide

 

[xtiaan2000]

I remember making a bet w my folks not to drink or smoke through high school. I won but then I crashed the car. So they wrote me a ck for winning and then I had to turn around and write them a bigger check to fix the car. :/

Don’t let her drive it. She might not understand the value of what she is driving.
I did after I wrote that ck!!

 

[onemanarmy]

In no way would I subject my 55 to a high schooler or a high school parking lot. It's not a matter of if, but when.

 

[RUSH55]

Don’t let her drive it. She might not understand the value of what she is driving.

This To the tenth degree. I couldn’t come close to making a statement like that with that kind of compassion.

 

[DieselFJ]

The smile on her face as she drives the 55 makes any repair worth my time and money, plus she’s out with me turning wrenches as much as time permits, so I get some quality time with her which will all to soon be gone as she grows up and moves on.
