man oh man oh man.....This one is hard on the eyes. And will most definitely be hard on the wallet to whomever that decides to pinch their nose and dive into this.
It's the Time Bandit from 55 Still rolling with some letters On the side ✌ We're crusin all over town 20 bucks and the mufflers Still sound We go to the grocery store We ain't never bored We be here in 2055 !! Just hit the stop watch Nick and the boys keepin us Classics alive
Someone made that for Drag race with 355 SBC and Ford 9 inch with 1/4 mile ⚙️ gearing and floor stick shift with nothing like not door panels. Perfect street car go to the track but put a better cam put it in 2200 rpm to 6900 rpm
I see people saying it's a good starting point and maybe so but why not leave it like it is and like the other guy said do a little tinkering. I like enough I know a guy looking for a 55 Chevy and I'm going to share this link 🔗
She's a rough ol girl, still a cool beater, when people do bodywork like it is in this car it makes me sick, i been doing body work for 40 years and I have seen guys blob filler and silicone in around windshields like this is before, it isn't even smoothed out ,it could be a cool car but it needs a lot of bodywork to make it right i seen it on marketplace a while back for 10.500, i actually have a screenshot of it, the owners of the bondo company are watching this video and smiling
I guess what they did to this car was better than sending it to the crusher....but not by much. I wonder if it could have been restored before it was butchered.
This car has a lot of potential provided the body isn't full of Bondo. Right now, I'd call it a bit of a confused car. It wants to a be a gasser style car but doesn't have race seats, too modern / fancy steering wheel, crappy shifter (needs a Hurst Comp Plus), lacking gauges, no radiused wheel wells, but it does have cool aluminum door panels and a nice paint job. Definitely need to change the throttle return spring bracket so it is not so stiff. If I bought it I'd convert to a straight axle and put a tunnel ram of maybe a 6-71 blower on it. Would be a good project for someone but for me, it's have to have a sub $20K price tag to make it worth while. I don't think Maple Motors negotiates on price though. It would be a fun car to buy and then do a "Two Lane Blacktop" road trip back home!
Somebody seen that possibly with a friend and said hey lets see how much we can get it for throw it together withour parts we got throw some mud and implement paint with that ol 355 with low oil pressure lifters that clatter but runs pretty good and flip it . hardest part probably be draggin it out of the grove bein its sunk down half way up he bumpers lol. Thats just my 2 cents .
Really suprised how many tri 5 cars you get and sell for only $3k over purchase price and sell,!. Seems more like $13k and sell in theory it's more reasonable by todays ridiculous standard and many of your cars at $29950 -$33995 and so on there not priced right
Yes we try our best to keep the prices down but the market has drove these cars up for the last 20 years. It is only going to get higher, they don’t make new 55s lol
man oh man oh man.....This one is hard on the eyes. And will most definitely be hard on the wallet to whomever that decides to pinch their nose and dive into this.
One nice thing is you can get anything you need from the aftermarket for these cars. Definitely would be a fun profect.
It's the Time Bandit from 55

Love the way you conducted business no BS. Can’t wait to see that 71 chevelle with the roll bar
Fairly solid 55 that could use some minor tinkering. Would make a nice weekend toy
Love the lettering. Needs some floor work and the dog legs always rot out but for $23k still an awesome deal.
The flat black and that shade of blue looks good. Great wheels too. Too bad they went crazy with the lettering.
She’s got good bones and it’s a great starting point for a project. Overall great value at that price point for a 55 in that condition
So true!
The person that did all work to get it to this point had more than 23000 in labor alone , not counting parts and paint , excellent deal
@@larrydixon-vi7ld No doubt id be happywith it
In my opinion I think That is a Great price and has ALOT of potential ! 👍🏻
I need this car!!
We all shake the shifter nothing wrong with that😊
😍Oh wow, very cool!!!!!!!!!!!!👍
Good Afternoon My Good Little Bro Nick Southgate & That Is A Very Nice Looking Old Car
😆Oh hell yeah 55 screams ⚡USA ⚡ 🍀got R done 😎✌️
So what do you get for that kind of money I 55 Chevy but nothing works in it
You have a parking light out on the passenger side bro.

Thank you
Summer time!! Good for a car show.
Awesome car ! Does the Primer Bandit # Time Bandit need a square nostalgic hood scoop ?
Awesome machine..I would Cruz the wheels off it😂.
Looks like you were having to come all the way off the clutch for full engage?
I would call her a work in time and time is needed here for this 55. Only if you have a dime to give the time and she still is pretty cool.
Nice 👍
Looks like it should be a gasser! I don’t know why people build personalized cars and then sell them.
One Badass Bowtie
Beautiful ride 👍 Nick this should sell quick 🔥

Would not be legal in Indiana without a front bumper
A 59 steering wheel and a 64 SS interior and it would be choice
Love how it looks
satin paint not primer.
Sold!!!!
Awesome driver quality car , well in the money !

Cool.
damn i want it
How many times throughout the years have you gotten inside of a vehicle and decide to not test drive it due to safety reasons?
Every week , then we fix them
I kinda like this, I don't know why but I do.
It's great bro love it
55 my favorite
You couldnt build the car for that price But it needs the chrome bumpers back
How fast do your cars sale from the time you get them? By the way great video.
Usually a few days, week to week we have one or two from a 10 car update that will stick around for a while but thats normal.
I appreciate your quick response. It's good to know how quick your cars sale. Hopefully in the future I can get one from you guys.
back seat slits were for roll cage. Nice 55
