i like !!

 

i think we decided to go with bags too....
there are two cars in this thread that give me nice dreams and both of them are dropped flat. i like low, but i hate driving low. smacking everything in the road and then trying to get in and out of the driveway. ours has de arched springs and blocks out back and dropped uprights in the front. its traditional and i think it looks good as is, but i think i'd like it better a little lower.

now the question is how to approach it.

i like the idea of the bolt in 4-link and MII from TCI, but i'm sure there are a world of other options. i'm NOT going to notch the rear because i dont care a bout laying frame. i just want it to sit right.

anyone wanna post up links to threads covering bagging 49-52 and 53-54 chevies? i think its relevant.

 

very sweet car.

 

Hi Thought I would post these pics of the 54 that I purchased last summer. I am not the original builder of this car but I would like to talk to the person that buit it.

 

Heres my old daily beater 51. 283-Pglide.

 

Do wagons count? Here's mine.

 

I didn't know you had this Troy! Nice car!!

 

Yeah I sold that car 5 years ago. The engine out of it went into the A coupe. I wish I had kept it.

 

Here is my 51. I started building it when i was 15 and it took me two years to get to this stage.



This is my daad 53 coupe fefore the straight axle conversion. It was built in the early 70's.


Also my dads 50 chevy custom.

 

Here's one of my "wish I never sold it" cars...

 

Very cool Rod, you should have kept that one.

 

That's very cool what are the taillights from?

 

1941 Studebaker

 

Now That is a Nice Chevy!!

 

Heres a '50 Fleetline I built about 20 years ago .....

 

Here's mine. Less interior at the moment. Trying to have it on the road for the Round up.

 

Thank you. I regret it everyday I think about it.

 

Isn't this Don Hickey's car now?
