    I think the city wouldn't allow us to use one cause we have a double barrel but they wouldn't let us put it up

    Just a small update.. Got new rotors with the calipers pads and hoses installed up front and all new shoes and hardware kit in the rear. We have a doner truck in the shop right now providing a transmission and exhaust. More progress pics as we go

    I've had 2 Chevy trucks in the last 3 years, they are great fun especially as I live in the UK and not many people have even seen one before.
    Looks like a great start keeps those updates coming!

    Check out the web site 67-72 Chevy trucks .com. More info on there that you can comprehend. I have a build thread ,56 project, that documents my build and mods in the 47- 59 message board.
