This truck will be a lifer for me and will go through several builds. For now it is my drive-able patina'd project (have a '37 Chevy and '47 Pontaic Torpedo that are my non-driving projects) so I am doing things that will only take it out of commission for a couple days at a time.
This picture was taken as we arrived at the Hunnert Car Pileup and installed the homemade salt flat disk to cover the '96 Ford wheels so we could get in.
This picture was taken after the guy was finished with my pinstripping at the show.
The truck currently has a c-notch with springover axle done on the back and eaton 3" drop springs on the front. The rockers sit at 9.5" from the ground and level. I am currently trying to figure out what I want to do for steelies and caps, which will be done in the next few weeks. At that point I will put a taller tire back on the front. This summer I will be getting a Sid's 3" drop axle for the front.
It's running a 351w/c4 with 3.0 gears and we just picked up an aod to swap in so we can afford to drive it.
Anyways, I just wanted to say hello. I will probably be asking some question while I work out the details on a few projects, so Thanks in advance. Have a lot of work I want to finish this summer so I can spend my winter on the '37 in the garage.
Also looking for a better grill and a good gauge set if anyone has one laying around.
