I am researching the purchase of a 53 1/2 to pu with a 70 ish posi rear end 6 bolt and a 350 transmission and a bad 283 motor rust free california truck. $800 dollars. I have the chance to get a free 76 chevy 1/2 ton chassis. Is this a good choice for a front end to put on the 53 chevy and what are the best choices for a front end transplant for better suspension steering and brakes. Am I better off putting the 53 on the 76 chevy?? I do have to work around the calif. garbage. Thanks Ed [email protected] Is $800 too much for the rust free truck rebuilt 350 trans. and posi rearend. The 283 was rebuild and left out in the weather with the heads off and cyl are rusted up.. Thanks so much Ed
