Anybody? What I was thinking of doing is getting the 2 outside teeth and putting them on where the outside 54 teeth would go. I'm missing those 2...
It's a sbc. Engine, trans, and the rear is out of a 79 Camaro. The master is on the fire wall.
I don't know much about GM's manual transmissions so here it is. I already have my 54 Chevy set up with a 350 t auto trans and I'm now wishing...

The fact is we will all be old some day and it will be hard to give up something that you enjoy so much. Just looking at it from the other side....
I don't have a picture but I use a modern plastic Ford tank but instead of putting it under the hood I hid it behind the front bumper on the...
Very cool. Like others have said get it running and driving then start the customizing.
Thanks.
I don't have any really good pictures but this is the one I have for my background. [IMG]

I love seeing past and present pictures like this. Very cool!
I must say I'm digg'in your ride. Just drive it for now and if you fall in love with it restore or customize it down the road. Have fun with it!
Good daily drive the way it sets. Puts some loud pipes on it and some nice caps.
Thats what I was looking for. Thanks guys.
Is there anyway you could use the 54 turn signal housings with the Pontiac center. From the pictures it almost looks like it would match up pretty...
They may be out there but I haven't had any luck locating some. Hopefully someone will chime in with a dealer or website.
I'm looking to drop the rear of my 54 about an inch and a half but can't seem to locate any blocks that are the right width. Does anybody make...
