Well, it wouldn't hurt if it were an Alfa as well, but this will do. $16.5k, and with the powertrain and chassis upgrades, you don't get to debate NPoCP, it's just NP.

Steering wheel needs to go, though.

Have to give credit to the BaT posting, not a personal find of mine.

Go for a 56, the filler for the gas tank is in the most badass location.

God, I love BaT. I aspire to purchase something listed there some day.

There are kits to move a 55s behind the tail light if you want to.

Nice wagon but still a little on the high side for a 4dr wagon even with the upgrades. It would be worth that kind of money if it was a 4dr sedan.

Maybe they had a nice one on before that they wanted to keep? I've got nothing.

Some people like the 55 better than the 56. I love both but I notice the 56 suffers from middle child syndrome. My grandfather has a 56 buts its so custom the filler is now in the trunk since the tail lights are from a Chrysler.

An ex-girlfriend's dad has a 57, red and white. Mostly stock, 98% fully restored. Just no pedal for the gas. The stalk goes down, but the three pedals don't all fit in there.
Almost got a chance to drive it, but it wasn't worth holding onto the destroyed relationship to drive 4 wheel drum brakes with 320HP.

It's an experience to drive a tri five that's stock. My grandpas 56 is a old custom that still has no power steering or brakes, all drums but with a 4 speed and 375-400hp. It's kind wild. Only drive it once before we started restoring it. They also have a 55 bel air hardtop that handles like a camaro. That's a fun car to drive handles good but still comfy. All the tri fives are great cars.
