I had the frame and all of the suspension parts blasted and powder coated, along with some small splash shields and the radiator supports. I will get pics of all of those parts this weekend.
The only thing that is not going to be original is disc brakes up front.

 

I'm subscribed too.
I'm looking at the same jobs on my '50 Styleline Special, and it's really nice to have your images to go by.
Thanks for posting them.

BTW - where did you get your floor panels?
Looks like nice stuff.

 

I bought them ( 4 pans ) at louisville ky swap meet. They are out of Owensboro ky. I can remember the name. The trans tunnel and the toe boards and the a pillar supports I bought from national chevy. They are the same brand pans I bought in L-ville. I have just about got the pans welded in today. Should be done and hopefully in primer this week.

 

I got the pans in and welded. I also got all of it in DP today. I have a picture of the powder coated parts but its not a very good picture.

 

WOW. Looks great.

 

Looking good.

 

Nice ride!

 

Love the shape of the 50 Chevy- Can't wait to see how it comes out- Great start.

 

Bad ***!!!!keep up the good work!!!!!!

 

The floor pans are killer, thats gonna make a nice one.

 

Wow, nice work. I hope my 50 doesn't see these pictures.

 

Great build thread man!

 

That is rad!!! inspiring for me. and also great reference photos of how the clutch linkage goes and reminds me that I need to improve it a bit.

Great job. I cant wait to see more.

 

update:
body is in final primer and should be in color first of the week. I got behind ( fixed a couple of crashers ) !!
Before I took it off the rotisserrie I painted the bottom, It turned out nice. I order all of the suspension parts yesterday. I plan to build the ch***is as soon as everything gets here so i can set the body on it. I had the motor done, its on the stand and ready to go in. I was hoping to have done by sept, for our local show but I dont think I will make it
