Jason since you are going to upgrade the suspension...it's a perfect candidate for a Gasser. Stefano can help you out if need be. Just saying! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/[/img]

Moving along... I got the body off the frame today. Very happy how the frame looks I actually got every bolt out except 2. I needed to use the torch.



Looks like it has a 62 center section.

I've been picking away at the 55. I added aftermarket side motor mounts and rear transmission mount to the frame. I'm also running 2&quot; drop spindles with tubular control arms. I mocked all this up before painting. Time to start re-assembling.

I didn't know they stamped the frames in 1955. What year did GM start to do this?
