Re: '56 Chevy Panel build (SLP)
I love the rear tuck! The truck is coming along great. I have really enjoyed following this page.

Re: '56 Chevy Panel build (SLP)
No way, the plan was to have it as a roller for the show. Still need to get the front suspension worked out, but it will be there.

ok, that makes sense. I was thinking you said it was going to be drivable.

Re: '56 Chevy Panel build (SLP)
In anticipation of some new Scott’s parts, I got the front cross member cut out. Man they didn’t want those things to come out. In one area there are three layers of 1/8 metal and 20 rivets holding it in.
![]() ![]() Also gave the grill a little patina look so it wouldn’t stand out as much for an upcoming show. ![]()

Re: '56 Chevy Panel build (SLP)
It's cutting it close but the new setup should be in first part of the week. Justin at Scott's is great, first setup didn't have the travel I was wanting so they hooked me up.

Re: '56 Chevy Panel build (SLP)
Got a winch off of craigs list today. So guys at the Nationals in a couple of weeks will be easy to get the panel on and off the trailer. Had a little time tonight and made a reciever mount for the trailer. Works great but got dark and didn't get a pic of it on the trailer.

Re: '56 Chevy Panel build (SLP)
Nice score Jared, that will make loading/unloading the panel a lot easier.
Thanks for saving everyone's backs! ![]()
