I have a 56 with a later syncro trans and a bus nose cone to drop the front down. According to my reading the trans will will make contact on the body and will be required to be massaged. I competed my pan and the body is in the rotisserie, I was wondering if anyone had any pictures of the location and depth of the dent made in the luggage area of the car.

Thank you

I had the same setup in a 54 and didn't have to clearance anything. Also a friend had a 57 without having to clearance either.
