Welcome lilbud.This is a kewl place to find out stuff and share knowledge.If your asking what diff to use,I just did a 51 pontiac,same as a chevy here in Canada.I used a 81 camaro diff.I think the malibu,regal etc diffs fit good too.Got some pics of your ride........Shiny

 

I think 55-6-7 chev rear ends bolt in those cars without modifying anything. Pretty sure that is what a friend of mine used in his 52. Should be able to come up with one of those cheap.
