I am eating lunch right now with the guy who originally painted it years ago.
Good stuff!
I am working on a 40 coupe and like the look of no vent windows. If I am reading this stuff correctly I can use 37 or 39 garnish moldings to do...
Thanks Gene. I did search the Grant site with and emailed them prior to posting here. No response yet.
Well I ate a bit to much chicken over the winter and now my fat gut does not fit well in my 51 Dodge truck. I am looking to put in a smaller...
I got ahold of the guy with the frame kit over the weekend. I have a couple of folks interested in the truck but if it don't go to a new home...
I am also kicking around sending the truck down the road to someone who has a clue on the right direction to go with this build. See the for sale...

I agree and will be moving it forward.
The 66 is sold but the yellow 58 us for sale. The guy who owns it wants $4500 for it. It is a South Dakota truck and does have some light rust...
It is pretty darn solid. I found a 56 after I purchased this one and I like the single headlights better. The 56 is more expensive than this one...

Thanks for the link. I actually took the time to read it before I started this thread. I knew it was a solid option but I wanted to explore other...
A c notch and pulling springs sounds like the way to go on this one. I never would have imagined the corvair option, thanks for sharing....
You bet you nailed it!
Leaning hard towards clipping this one. The clip seems to be the most cost effective way to get what I am after. I found a complete Camaro clip...
http://www.e-zchassisswaps.com/index.php Take a look at this option boys.
OK I said no more coin flips, I lied. So we were drinking a few beers last night and shooting the crap. My buddy started giving me crap about the...
I drink socially and very lightly at that so no worries on that one. I learned a long time ago beer and technical work don't mix we'll, I am sure...
Beer pong!
The drilling ang bolting is in reference to using a gm van front suspension.
PS. No more drunken coin tosses!
I went through all the threads related to clipping the old girl on the site prior to posting. I agree the thread you mentioned is very good. I...
I clipped a 53 Chevy years ago and know the work it takes. It worked out great but there was a lot of fab work involved. I have also worked with...
I want to give it a decent look on a budget. I don't plan on keeping this one as another buddy came up with a 56 GMC I want. So I want this one to...
That was a sweet ride!
I just got back from a lunch time stroll through the local upullit yard. I see what my buddy was talking about regarding the gm van swaps. With...
I have read the majority of the threads you referenced Apache. No doubt the clip makes the most sense. I am looking at all options and hoped...
So I got a bit drunk with a friend and we started haggling over a 58 Chevy Apache short box step side he purchased in southern Cal and brought...
