    Hey, long time lurker on the HAMB here from kcmo.
    Finally got it rolling. A few test runs resulting in getting pulled over and having brake issues. A month later cruising with no problems. Still a work in progress but it does feel nice to have it up and going. Here is a little info
    1952 chevy sedan deluxe. Took the six out slide in a hopped up small block. turbo 400 with 70 nova rear end. Lowered around 6" all around.

    Thanks, I got some drop springs and leaf springs from jamco. Then cut springs and added lowering blocks to the rear. Had to cut the old spring perches out and added them to the nova rear end to get the leaf springs to work.

    looks familiar
    I just picked this one up a little while ago,
    haven't decided exactly what to do with it yet

    it's all stock and only 96k miles on it
    might just have the 'polstery done and drive it as is

    around town it's about perfect,
    has a bit of a time trying to keep up on the freeway though...

    but I had them, and now that they're on I kinda like 'em..

    Got a couple of shots of the motor. The wires are everywhere, still need to get them trimmed up. I'll take more soon.
