I already had the Camaro subframe, rear end and column (1980 Z28) for this truck. I have no problem doing the subframe work I would just like to see more photos of how you all have done it before I cut. I'd love to see some of the local St. Louis ones in person.
Isn't there a set of frame brackets out there that allow you to hang the Camaro rear and springs with out much modification?
Also, I know the '57 fenders are different than the '55 and '56 but is the actual grille opening the same so you can run a '55 or '56 grille?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! New Guy

You would get more responses in the Hi-Po section of the forum. You may also want to run a Search Here is a link I started that my be helpful . I personally do not like clipped vehicles as there is always a chance of a stress crack starting where the two sections are joined. Scott
