1952-59 Ford Hello again

Hello everyone,
Been a long time since I've been on here. Life has been super busy. Anywho, I'm finally getting ready to get things going on my 55' again. Since I've posted last (I don't even know how long its been) I've fabricated and installed a trailing arm rear suspension consisting of 64' C10 arms and coils and my own crossmembers/mounts. I will post pics hopefully in the next few days.
I'm getting ready to start mocking up the body and gapping the doors, fenders and such so I'm starting to collect for her again. I just posted in the "wanted" section that I need the factory choke knob/cable ***embly in good working condition. I was stupid in my younger days and cut the original and now i need it, so I thought I'd see if anyone knows of or has one they could part with. Talk to you guys later. Have a good evening.

 

Here are some photos of the ch***is/suspension being setup and built. This was done back in 2011/12' when I was teaching the Auto Customizing cl*** at Warren Tech in Lakewood, Colorado.

 

Here are a couple more pics with the finish welding of the crossmember for the trailing arms.

 

Look great. I have to ask. Why the rear suspension revamp? Are you planning on using bags?

 

"Longroofs" Rule! Nice job! (As you can see, I'm a little biased.)

 

Yeah. Me too.

 

I decided to redo the rear suspension as I want the car to have a nice smooth ride and be comfortable for longer hwy trips, plus I wanted a little challenge and the parts were available to me.

 

Don't know how I missed this thread before, but I did. Nice job! This ain't your first rodeo obviously!
Airbags in the back?

 

Not planning on airbags only because I don't want the plumbing and such that comes along with them.
