@@patdesrosiers6423 not meaning to insult. I'm a true die hard Mopar guy, since I started building my "57 D100 in the early 80's. Pretty much all I drove were Mopars. But the enthusiasm. I'm at the age, I don't care, two door, four door. Post or hard top. But seeing a women excited for a project car. That's over the top. Enjoy your project.
I was drawn to the 55 in Cadillac and Chevy's that 1 year said a lot to me as a young kid..and it never changed for me it has been a constant thru my life and all of the car shows that I have been to in my 62 years....55 is the 1 year.....that is like a magnet.....I can't get enough of the 55
I hate seeing cars burried in the woods like that and rotting. The golf cart makes sense as a project. Cheap, easy and practical to work on, as a kid. That C50 is clean.
My family had a 1955 210 4 door in blue with a white top from 1981-85. It became my first car in the summer of 1983 when I got my license. Mine had a 6 cylinder with a 3 speed manual.
When I got out of the army 1976 I bought a 55 Chev 4 door, 6 with a three speed, same color and everything.... bought it from a school teacher for $250 drove it for about 4 years.
That exact car has been my dream car ever since I saw it in an old family album. Life happened and it disappeared forever but one da I will have one...
yep..i'd rather have a 2 door, but it's a 4 door, and it's fine...and please leave the 4 doors a 4 door..none of that 4-door-to 2-door conversion cr*p, at least not the butchery with piecing together door parts to fill the void and putting in plexiglass rear quarter windows that don't even roll down...if your going to do it at all, at least have a 2 door VIN(body change), a set of proper 2 door doors, and a donor car to get the proper rear quarter window parts and structure from..better yet, just leave it a 4 door..I remember back in the day, a common thing people did with tri-five 4 doors was to shorten it, cut it behind the front doors and weld the rear end on after removing the section behind the front doors to the rear window...a "shorty"...yuck...what a butchery mess, looked much better as a 4 door...
Still cant stomach a four door on a tri 5 .. ...however, i DO like the fourdoor flattops of 59,60, GM's with the giant fishbowl rear glass!..those are pretty cool ( i actually bought a four door flattop 60 belar ) 🤣
@@filthbomb I agree with you about the 4 door "flat tops" on the '59-'60..the were 4 door hardtops(pillarless)..looked FAR better than the 4 door sedans with all their framing and the extra little quarter windows...and yes, the tri-five 4 door sedans look "framey" as well as the 59-60's...again, the '56-'57 4 door(pillarless) hardtops look FAR better than the 4 door sedans with all that framework..unfortunately, they didn't make a factory 4 door hardtop in '55..has less to do with how many doors there are, really, than it has to do with all that thick, vertical framework that upsets the flowing lines of the styling..actually, I am not that fond of a 2-door sedan in the tri-fives, or the '59-'60 for the same reasons..plus, the roof and windshield are "taller" on the sedans, both 2 door and 4 door. Interestingly, the unique one-year only styling of the '58 suited the sedans much better...less framework, and it worked with the styling better. Back to this '55, I would still leave it a 4 door rather than butcher it up making it something that it is not...
Dave I can see the little guy being just like Dad. That road in front of your house will never not have a coat of rubber on it once he turns 16. Awesome content man!!!
Mr. B. Here ! Mr. N. The young man many be on too something with the golf cart ! LOL ! May loose your video ! Internet’s issues! The young man first car 1955 , go for it ! 👍👍👍 Congratulations guys ! Needs a little love ! The sound of the doors closing is unbelievable! Good buy on all !
KEEP THE 3 on the tree!!! Adjust it right and bang shift like nobody’s business! Would take some major mods to work with truck 3 speed. That trans won’t take hp. But who needs to row around town in a classic when the column shift drives so good? They’ve never been sexy but work real good when setup with the right amount of slop. You could make them cool!
Ima grown man but I get all excited like your son when I go inside a good junk yard it's like a toy store to me 😂😂😂 that 55 4 door is sweet great find 👍😎
Thankfully I'm older & wiser...instead of being a bit jealous of you guys I'm super happy to see you guys living the dream & stumbling upon serious gems. I'm thinking I'm seriously fortunate to have found your videos to see your dream gems. Keep on keeping on Dave & Co. Gunna make me smile all day.
I just found 3 56's here in Texas. Worked out a deal for 1 2door Bel Air and 2 4doors with two containers full of parts. Enough to make two cars! Cool to see another one saved!
Great strategy. bring your friends to the junkyard and hopefully they buy stuff. You still get to save them old cars but don't have to pay for them😂😂 win win win
Awesome find on the 55 I believe I wouldn't do what needs to be done and get that 6 cylinder running and drive it !! Great video and keep up the great job GOD BLESS
So good to see your son following your passion for saving old cars ....I've been in the panel and paint industry for 30yrs in Australia....I wish I had kept all my old cars .....I would of bought that 55 4 door straight away...
The 55 4 door is a sweet find - thing is MINT. I love the color. I'd daily the health out of that thing. Wouldn't you love to drive that to church on Sunday? three peddles, it wants a muncie! That C50 is a ramp truck waiting to be completed :) So glad you snagged it. Thought y'all were gonna leave with the 55 after looking at it. Please tell me y'all got those frames.
Hey Dave, Great find on the 55. Also, the truck. I know the 55 is in good hands, not to mention the 68 truck. Can't wait for the follow up on both. You can always give Dan from DD Speed Shop a call to convert the 55 from a four door to a two door. Love your channel and videos. Take care and be safe.
I'm about to take delivery of my Grandfathers 57 4 door 210 post. Almost the same color scheme you have there. Mine needs some love and attention too but, im right there with you on feeling that stoke. what a fun family project!
I have a 55 Bel-Air with the original 265 and cast iron Power glide . 4-door. It gets a lot of looks. It has a Rideteck Street Grip suspension and front disc brakes.
Omg David, what a beautiful 55 chevy I love everything about the old girl!!! I can't wait to see what you do with your new 68 c50 car hauller!!!! Keep up all the great work Thanks Mike
That C50 is nice my favorite year 67 and 68 I've been looking for a 1/2 ton swb big back window to build you got a good one it don't need anything other then clean it really good then build a bed
F1 is a bad a$$ truck! Love the C50!! Nice score on the minty 4 dr, sure glad DD Speed Shop didn't get it, you know what happens to those 4 drs! Lol..... Dan is a great talent!
Awesome old 55' four-door! I had one almost identical to it when I was 15 years old... that's been a day or two ago. Great score on the C-50! Big block and a blower?
That's one heck of a 4 door 55. It's hard to find them like that. I'm building a 55 4 door 210 for my wife on my channel but trying to finish my hardtop first. I sure would like to go on a junkyard crawl with you sometime. I'm trifive to the bone
Its amazing cars like that are still available out there. What an amazing find. Thanks David for sharing this view of an ever shrinking Americana and i am so happy your passion is in this era of cars. That truck has the small 67 c10 type back window. Cant wait to see what you do with it. 👍👍👍✌
You made two good purchases. If the floorboards and frame are solid in the 55 you can have it highway ready quickly and for not a lot of money. Get it running and drive the wheels off it while the weather is nice. You can make it pretty over the winter.
Lots of cool stuff, not easy to find up here in manitoba. Im an hour and a half from DDSpeedshop, and dont have the same taste in cars as dan. 50’s dodge/fargo trucks, 50’s chevy trucks and a studebaker in the works.

I added the Belair trim and interior. I also painted it like a 2 door hard top, dividing the 2 tone paint line the same. The top is white with blue pearl flip flop and the bottom color is midnight blue. I'm from Swampscott, Massachusetts, and saw this 55 Chevy Neptune green 4 door sedan driving through my town with a for sale sign in the window. I pulled the guy over and noticed right away the exact white Tennessee license plate with black numbers was a 1971 issue. When I first got it and driving it around in primer, wise guys would ask me, what are you gonna do about the rear doors? I said, yeah let me find a nice rotted out 2 door from the Northeast and trade my rust free Tennessee classic. That's always my main bragging point that it's from Tennessee. Congratulations and good luck cruising!
All those oil change stickers on the doorjamb tells you a bunch right there. Someone, at one point in time really loved that car. If it could talk. Found a hotel receipt for a place in Bogota, Columbia in the glovebox of my 56 210 Sedan when I bought it. Same license plate number and car color then, as now, as shown on the reciept. A drug runner 56 chevy??, maybe. Also found a Air Force Id card from Malmstrom Missile Wing Montana in the glovebox. At one point in time, my car went from Bogota, Columbia to The Pac Northwest.
A 292 inline 6 with turbo would work in the 55. In LA in 1963 saw a 55 wagon with a 300 GMC in line 6 with a Scott blower and 3 inch exhaust. Sounded great

Someone really loved that 55 back in the day. Prolly alot of family memories. Now a new family of memories. Awesome

Three on the tree is the best to me. Ad and overdrive and have some tri five fun .... Thank you

Wow, awesome finds. You have the best luck at random side of the road stops and finds.
You made two good purchases. If the floorboards and frame are solid in the 55 you can have it highway ready quickly and for not a lot of money. Get it running and drive the wheels off it while the weather is nice. You can make it pretty over the winter.
Lots of cool stuff, not easy to find up here in manitoba. Im an hour and a half from DDSpeedshop, and dont have the same taste in cars as dan.
50’s dodge/fargo trucks, 50’s chevy trucks and a studebaker in the works. I love seeing all the old stuff back on the road where it belongs. Doesent matter what it is, shiny, ratty, LS powered or original, its all good.
My dad had a 55 2door and my brother had a 57 Belair. For some strange reason im a mopar enthusiast.
Subbed because i like what you do, and all these channels motivate me.
Hey man great find. It's amazIng you can still find a classic in original and almost complete condition. I found the identical model in 1979 and still own it. The only difference was my 2 tone paint combination had the roof in sea foam green, which is like a mint green.
My Two Ten also had no deluxe heater with only the fan knob. And I had no radio with the radio delete cover with the bow ties. Your door panels still look great. I've restored my 55 twice and currently have a 350 cid with a muncie 4 speed and 3.08 rear end. I added the Belair trim and interior. I also painted it like a 2 door hard top, dividing the 2 tone paint line the same. The top is white with blue pearl flip flop and the bottom color is midnight blue. I'm from Swampscott, Massachusetts, and saw this 55 Chevy Neptune green 4 door sedan driving through my town with a for sale sign in the window. I pulled the guy over and noticed right away the exact white Tennessee license plate with black numbers was a 1971 issue. When I first got it and driving it around in primer, wise guys would ask me, what are you gonna do about the rear doors? I said, yeah let me find a nice rotted out 2 door from the Northeast and trade my rust free Tennessee classic. That's always my main bragging point that it's from Tennessee. Congratulations and good luck cruising!
That 55 is nice though, and it's the right color too!
Nice find!
I always like the term unmolested for cars. Really hard most times to prove mileage without a mountain of paperwork.
55 is very similar to the one I had almost 50 years ago. Very nice time capsule and an excellent score.The C50 is also killer and will be very useful
Cool 55 Chevy...4.8L Ls, 4l60...sweet..
All those oil change stickers on the doorjamb tells you a bunch right there. Someone, at one point in time really loved that car. If it could talk. Found a hotel receipt for a place in Bogota, Columbia in the glovebox of my 56 210 Sedan when I bought it. Same license plate number and car color then, as now, as shown on the reciept. A drug runner 56 chevy??, maybe. Also found a Air Force Id card from Malmstrom Missile Wing Montana in the glovebox. At one point in time, my car went from Bogota, Columbia to The Pac Northwest.
Small block chevy with a five speed would make it a nice highway cruiser, windows down, probably get mileage in the 20s at 65mph.
What a FIND!
Looking forward to the C50 Roadstoration :-)
Love to have one of those wagons... They are nice!!
Great video glad you shared your family time with us.
50 looks nice, looking forward to seeing what you do with it.

😍Oh wow, very cool!!!!!!!!!!👍👍
A 292 inline 6 with turbo would work in the 55.

Sounded great
Golden Aniversary 62 Chevy👍
You could sell the wiper system to DD speed shop !!! I also remember putting those old school stickers on old cars...
Keep the column shift so it stays original. Those are cool and rare.
