55 baby bird, they are really nice cars when done but parts are NOT cheap for these cars.

Looks like it's in pretty good shape! Now it needs a Coyote motor, T56 and a 9" !

Its 56. Rebuilt original motor and trans. Ot needs a lot but, it is way cool. **** is still out there!

Yep, parts are out there. A good friend of mine built one for his wife, late model 5.0 factory F. I., 5 speed, disc brakes & A/C. By the time he finished it about 6 months ago, he said he had over 40K in it & that didn't include the purchase price. He has never told me what he paid for the roller.

Some years ago early 90s a friend of my father's traded a cherry '57 T Bird for a basket case '53 Vette. I had to excuse myself so they didn't see me gag
