Re: 56 gmc front clip question

How about the original service manuals? Plenty of pics in here...

55-59 GMC Maintenance manual

And here's one for 2nd series Chevy, doesn't have much info about the front end but covers just about everything else...

55 Manual

I can get you pics of mine too if still needed...
