I'm working on restoring the '55 Speedster at work. I've got alot of the parts stripped and ready to be restored/repainted. The problem is that most of them weren't the original color anymore. I'm looking for mostly chassis and interior/under dash referance pics, and they're abit hard to come by. I checked the sticky at the top, and it didn't help much. Everybody has pics of the outsides of their cars, but not the kind of detail shots I need. Are there any other good Pre-A referance sites out there? Thanks.

Get a copy of Brett Johnson's restoration book (~$20). I've used it as reference for restoration of both my 64 & 65 C's. I think he has a new edition out as well. It's packed with good pics and descriptions.
Also, try Pelican Parts web site they have scanned images of 356 shop manual exploded parts diagrams for their parts listing. It may not be the exact in-situ images you're looking for but may help.
My 2-cents.
