    Does anyone know if an 85 chevy 1/2 ton truck front suspension will fit a 53 chevy 210. If not, how intensive would the fab be?

    Try looking at a Jag XJ6 I think it is.I remember hearing that it pretty much bolts in. Not sure about the p/u suspension.

    It's probably too wide. I'm using an 80 frame under my 52 GMC and I had to order front wheels with a deeper offset to get them under the front fenders. I know it's a truck but I would still think it's too wide for a car.

    Way too wide!! Stock suspension is a better way to go and just rebuild it!
