    What's the best donor for a 52 chevy truck when it comes to the suspention gear, disk breaks & power steering?
    I know of the Mustang II front ends sold in mags but i am on a budget build and want to find something from a junk yard.
    IF this isn't possible... or if it's just better...
    what year model 80's or 90's chevy s10 can i get the for one easy swap of the frame if possible?

    I'm 26 from the Atlanta GA area... been doing this stuff now for a few years more on the paint and body work side of things. Getting into the more machanical stuff now.
    I look forward to surfing this site and seeing what information is out there!

    Sweet mercy, the S10 set up is awesome, you need a good welder, a measuring tape and beer, or patience!

    welcome
