I still have the 1956 Chevy, 2-door Belair post I purchased in Waco Texas in 1971. I sold it once during a divorce. Sold my 1961 Corvette and my 1979 454 BB corvette convert at the same time. I was a bad year. I got the Belaire back ten years later...minus the engine, a 235" 6 popper, and missing all the SS trim on the sides and around the windows. It had had a restoration begun and all the little dents and dings fixed, in Primer with all new window glass. The owner I knew...and HE was going through a divorce and had to go liquid on his stuff...or lose it. ALL that time I was looking into getting the Texas paperwork for the car...converted into a Colorado Title...using the address I had back when I purchased the car. in 1987 I was able to get a CLEAN Colorado Title....and with THAT and a dealer inspection to verify matching numbers on the title against the VIN tag on the car. I can have an OHIO Title.

PS.... I purchased it back for $300.00.

I am buying a part here...and a part there...buying the parts I need to return it to the street as a eye turning NO RUST 1956 Belair. Just finished rebuilding a Muncie M21 C/R BB 4-speed as a "first transmission" for it. Have the Hurst Competition Plus shifter for the trans and a Lakewood Blow shield bell housing and am sniffing around at "turnkey engines" Going to put a 9" Ford under it and relocate the rear springs inboard for wider rear tire clearance. Already Have the Hotchkiss front and rear anti camber bars, the tube front, control arms and wildwood disc brakes for the the front. Yes the body is coming off the frame for sandblasting and frame modifications.

I have had a few years to plan my mods.

I think I will sell my 1952 Jeep M-38 that is about 85% completed with all the really suck work done. Mostly just installing new finish up parts...new tires..wiring harness, canvas seats and a new canvass top.

As far as Ford Pintos go the most interesting sex was in a hatchback in the dead of winter. Banging a woman and every time I rose up for the next thrust my ass hit the glass on the hatch. Brrrrr.

Believe it or not, for a short time that car was available with a 383 Hemi V8 engine...with as I recall, a dual-quad carburetor setup.

Don't think so, but possible in a short run...

To my knowledge the only limited's had the max wedge engines (413 or ?) I forget the slightly larger max wedge displacement.
