Sweet oval rag Ratt!
I too found my dream bug last year. '55 oval rag, complete with pretty much all the correct parts. Spent the whole year welding in new metal.
I still cant believe I own one!

That makes my project look like a breeze! I love the red interior with that color!

| Looks like the decklid and engine right behind it! At least they left the air cleaner back on, so hopefully most of the water and dirt stayed out. |

| I also thought that was an Impala, but it looks more like a Biscayne to me. Either way, go back and get it if you can! |

Nope, '62 Impala. Bel Air and Biscayne had only two taillights per side. I've restored a few of these and they are about my favorite car after old Beetles.

| Was told it's a 61 on the Impala. There's also a Biscayne wagon out there. I only had to drive almost 1500 miles for the oval. |
