Re: New Guy on the block..1956 Chevy Build

Been working slowly on the tuck. After reviewing all the post I decided to build the truck work the bugs out then take apart and send to paint while I work on detailing the frame waiting on the body parts to get back.

I really don't like the rims and would like to change to some deep 20" in the back with low profile tires, and like some 18" in the front. any Ideas?

I have had it on the road and I love it.

Nice build!!! looks like you did everything right.

So now you are probably saying to yourself "is primer good enough or do I wanna take this all apart AGAIN!"... lol right????

Its a long process but its all worth it in the end....
