1955 was the first year for the 265 V8 small block Chevy. 53-54's and the first half dozen '55's came with the 235 SIX cylinder.
Had a blast at the show and even got to chit-chat with several racers including Alan Reinhart for a few minutes before he spotted a bigger name than me and had to go.
At around 2:30 it started to rain for the second time so I made a mad dash for the shop about 10 miles away. I had to stop under 3 different gas station overhangs to wait out the rain in Orange. One of the few projects left to complete on my car was the top but I ran out of time.
