My name is Joe Paolucci. I am a new subscriber. I live in
Walton, Kentucky which is about 20 miles from Cincinnati Ohio.
I own several cars, some are show cars and some are fun
drivers. The show cars are a 1955 DeSoto Sportsman (Pink and
White)
and a 1955 Dodge Custom Royal Lancer (All Black) as it was
ordered when it was new. My fun driver is the 1955 Dodge Sierra
station wagon ( Red and Black). It has the 270 poly and
standard transmission. Great for swap meets or just cruising around
town.
Is there any 1955 wagons out there, I would like to hear
from you. There are several 56's around, but I have yet to talk to someone
with a 55.
Other project cars are 1966 Ply Belv, which belonged
to my dad, a 1960 DeSoto sedan, a 1952 DeSoto sedan and a 1960
Dodge
Matador 2dr hdt , this model had the larger fins. I have
just listed way more than a lifetime of projects.
But my heart is with the 55 Dodges and 55 DeSoto, which I
have driven for 40 years. My first car was a 55 Dodge, and I
learned
how to drive and took my drivers test in my dad's 55
DeSoto.I have learned quite a bit about these cars over the years,some
the
hard way. I enjoy the hobby and the great people in
it. Hope to hear from some of you.
Joe
