I've been a lurker for a while. I just bought a 1934 Ford 3 window coupe and frame. I'd been looking for a '55 Chevy for some time but this one kind of fell into my lap. It's a complete fiberglass body and a bare frame so I've got a ton of questions.
Drive train will be a SBC w/700R4. The frame has a drop axle x member, but that's going to be replaced by a Heidts MII with 2" dropped axles. The rear will have a Ford 9" with 3.70 gears. Triangulated 4 bar and coil overs will finish the rear. I thought about the Heidts Superide front, but I'll save the $$ for other parts. I need most of them anyway. I'm on parts overload right now.
