Hey guys, thanks for the fast replies. As for the 283, I was thinking of taking it to the swap meet in Ft. Worth on the 28th but if you want it jmoore, shoot me an offer. We will come together on something.
As for the subframes and what I am looking for, I was thinking of finding a car to get the front end as well as the master cylinder and linkage. Between me, my brother, and my father; there is really no end to the technical expertise. I almost bought a 92 camaro Z28 but was then told that the frame would not even be close to matching my 56.
I also want this truck to set as low as posible with out bagging it.
