Love it.
My year in 12th grade(62-63) and 1st year of college, I drove one until the engine blew. I paid my father $1 for it when he bought a new car, no giving cars away, it had to be a sale so they could collect the taxes, but they forgot to specify a minimum price.
Mine was cream on top, dark blue in the middle and a light sky blue below. Mine also had the V8 out of a '55 Roadmaster. I did a bit of low flying on the twisting back county roads and highways of Western Kentucky going to the High School and college. The college was 25 miles one way and I often made it in 30 minutes from home to being parked, on those 1 & 2 lane country roads. The last two miles were on a real 4 lane highway.

Is that a four-holer? I had one when I lived in Indiana about 1965. It was a great snow car with that slush-o-matic transmission. I couldn't spin the wheels.

I think in '54 only the Roadmaster had 4 ports. In '55, '56, and '57 Only the Special had 3 ports, all the rest 4.

Great set, Kim, I like how they painted the bumpers to match the colors front and back.
