Hey guys and girls, Fraz here, needing some stuff to get the Byooik ready for the HAMB drags.

Lookin for an open drive rear, 5x5 bolt pattern, and as close to 59" wide from tire mounting flange to tire mounting flange. I reeeally would like to get a rearend from a 61-63 Buick fullsize car, aka an Invicta, Electra, or Riviera. The driveshaft, coil springs, and all mounting hardware would also be nice. Prefer close to me as possible but willing to drive a bit, despite the cost of gas right now.....

Might also be able to use a rear from a 59-60 Pontiac or Caddy. Maybe newer one from a Chevy truck or 80's Caprice, I'm not picky on what it is, just need the 5x5 bolt pattern and the 59" track width.

If you got somethin or know of somethin please pass it my way, it's been 5 years since I took my baby to the dragstrip and I'm tired of going and not having anything to drive!

I have one from a 67 Cutlass "complete" you can have. But the rear has to be gone soon, as I need the storage space. zip code 25202
