Here is my new project.  A 55 Coupe de Ville with 66k miles on her.  Broke one of my rules by buying a car that did not run.  But I liked it.  Turns out it has a broken piston a real show stopper.  So if anyone has a stock size piston I need it bad.

A little advice. The tuning specs say 2.5 degrees BTDC for the timing. Todays fuels are different than 1955. I pushed mine to 5 degrees BTDC and it was perkier from the traffic light. I know I could go more and still not have detonation. I plan on adjusting mine to 7 degrees the next time.
