Hi All,
I am beginning the build of my mobile pizza truck. It is a 1955 Chevrolet 5700 that I am building this on. I am going to document the progress here for anyone who is interested. I need some help though, with finding parts and I also have a few technical questions. I made my questions below in bold.
Where do I source rear wheel cylinders? I am going to be adapting Randy Domeck's disc brakes on the front along with running stainless steel lines from the master cylinder to the front and rear brakes. The master cylinder went bad (thankfully I was in front of my house) so it's time to redo the entire brake system the right way.
I also would like to replace the rubber which holds the driveshaft sections up to the frame? Where in the world can I find those? I plan on using steel I-beams to give me height to clear the rear wheels. I want to run these along the top of the C Channel frame rails. Does anyone know how much the rear suspension travels? Is a 4" I-beam enough to ensure the body on the truck will clear the rear wheels?Here's a picture of the truck from my Facebook page:

I have to have this truck ready for two weddings next June, so here we go! Let's do this!
