Re: My 56 Project

Sorry I din't introduce myself. My name is Jill. I got this truck about 10 years ago. Heres the story: my Brother had to go dirt track racing and my Dad helped build him a fast mini stock and to make things fair I got a truck. He paid about $400.00 for it and it looked like a piece of junk literally!! He did all of the chassis, electrical, and mechanical work and my boyfriend is doing all of the paint work. I've got the best of both worlds. Ain't that COOL!!!

Here is a list of parts and mods-- just to name a few:

78 camaro subframe
78 camaro rearend (springs were moved in under frame)
92 chevy truck 350 throttle body engine
700R4 trans
Custom radiator (top half original brass polished)
Vintage Air setup
Auto Meter Gauges with Billet Insert
1990 Chevy Van : wiring harness, computer, steering column(lots of mods- column shifter) brake booster
Summit Racing Fuel Cell
Holley inline electric fuel pump 15 psi
March High Performance serpentine pulleys
Hooker Competition Headers with copper flange gaskets
Magnaflow Performance mufflers with pipes turned down right behind the cab!!!
More pics will come!!

Oh by the way the holes in the dash are for the billet Vintage Air control and a CD PLAYER.

Here is a pic of the back half:

Re: My 56 Project

Welcome Jill, So if your dad is doing the mechanical side and your boyfriend is painting it I am guessing you are doing all the assembly? Gotta love a woman that is willing to get her hands dirty. My wife won't even come out in the garage to see if I am still alive...LMAO.

Sounds like it's going to be a very cool truck when it's done.
