Well, I'm at it again. I picked up a solid 1958 short wheel base Chevy Panel truck. It's just a roller with 1979 4x4 axles front and rear with the steering column and brake booster setup from the same truck. It also came with a 2004 Chevy suburban 2500 as a donor. The suburban is a 6.0l, 4l80e, push button 4wd, 14 bolt rear with 4:10 gears. With the wheelbase difference, there was a lot of cutting and welding to be done to fit the panel truck body on the chassis. Plus i don't want a lifted truck. So MadKidd and I worked out a trade. He got the suburban and i got his 2006 Saab 97x. It's the same wheel base, 6.0l LQ4, beefedup 4l70e trans and a 3:73 gear.
Just likes my last build
http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=768482 , the plan is to cut out the fire wall and floor pans and set the panel truck body on the Saab floor pan, retaining all the creature comforts and driveability of a late model with the classic bodystyle on the outside.
