so here is mine! 1955 roadmaster! someone put in a diesel engine with 34bhp(!!) in the 1970s-cuba style made in austria. roadmaster should be on the streets in 4 weeks with new 350/350 and new chassis from chevy caprice (sorry to all purists). still a lot of work,a lot to learn and a lot of desperation-and a lot of fun! best wishes from good old europe!
