Hey Matt! You have two beautiful jewels there (car and lady). Preserve them both! ;) I had no idea Somersets were made so long ago. I thought they were merely an '80's car, but it's good to be schooled on the older rides. Lemme know when you get some more pics of your car up. I am definately interested in seeing more.

Looks great! I like the 55 tail lights on the 56. I am looking at a 56 right now I may buy, but I have projects going on so may not be able to afford it, but seeing yours all rat rodded makes me want to get it! Good luck
