I appreciate the comments. This build had been going on what seems like forever. To finally get toward the end is just crazy. I’m hoping everything goes smooth from here and we get it done.

I’m using some bucket seats out of a Scion. The backs have been cut down to sit as close to the bottom of the window as I could.

Re: 1956 Chevy 3100 Corvette Suspension

Murd

Looking fandamtastic, it's got to be great to be so close to the finish. Or are they ever finished?

Two batteries? Are the 2 6V to create 12V? Is the battery set up for the full tk or just for what is in the consul?

Whoa, Holly Chumoka!!!! Right arm!!

Keep on keepin on

The batteries are XS Power D1200 Series 12 volt batteries. Both batteries will run everything on the truck.

Re: 1956 Chevy 3100 Corvette Suspension

Hi Murd, have a quick question on your brake pumbing. Do you have any pics of your rear calipers and brake lines showing how you transitioned from hard lines to flex lines? Mine are from an '88 corvette so calipers are on the front side of the axle. Looking for ideas, if you have any pics i would love to see them, if not dont make a big deal out of it, i will figure it out, thanks, Blake
