Looks great! How do you gonna build the suspension in back?

 

You have diagonal tires on that ride? If so you know of a good place in Sweden to get some tires? I live in Norway and diagonals are hard to come by...

 

I'm going with a k-link with airbags.

Yes it's diagonals.. I don't know, I guess you could ask someone who imports parts from the US.

Swapping the stock rear end for a '55 chevy.

I dig the updates.
I hope the old rear finds its way under a '49 or '50 Chevy. (Better brakes and gear ratio.)

 

I sold it today, it will be under a '51 chevy..

I welded my own k link on a 52 chevy for some years ago the only adwise i can give you was that i used volvo 240 buschings everywhere they had great size but i'l gess nowdays its easy to buy polyrutan in different sizes.

 

So you've done this sort of thing once or twice already

I built a '50 chevy pick up once, that's my only experience on car builds..

personally I can't stand a brake booster on the firewall if it wasn't there from the factory, so I'm hiding it under the body. I will update with more pics when it's done.

 

Exhaust

 

Looks great! Always hard to run exhaust nice over the axel using air bags but yours looks awesome!

 

Yes, but way easier with the body off
Can't wait to get everything painted and bolt it on for good though.

 

How is it going? Any progress?

 

I'm not a photo guy and barely ever take photos of my progress but the chassie is done in acouple of days.
