Re: 58 Apache short bed rebuild

Once the cab, front end and rear bed were removed I had it brought back to my own garage to start the chassis strip down. First thing was to power wash the whole thing to see what i was dealing with It had a standard 350 which turned out to be a 4 bolt mains which suited my plans to make a 383 out of it and also had a TH400 transmission so from that side of things i was happy. I eventually managed to find out through guys on here that the front end was from an impala and not a Camaro as I had been led to believe, not a standard swap but it was all i had to work with. I decided that i wanted to use ride tech air ride so while waiting on delivery of the parts started to modify the rear end.
