Greetings from S. FL. Here is my 55 1st series that I have been slowly working on for the last 18 months. This is in tribute to my step dad, Daniel "BOONE" Hodge. We lost him 3 years a go to colon cancer. When we first moved in with him his pride and joy was a 51 chevy 5 window with a 350 sbc. He sacrificed it in order to get the down payment on the house i grew up in for the next 15 years.

I came across this on CL and bought it before I had a plan or a clue what to do. But I had to get it..

The frame ended up being totally rusted and cracked..

so I decided to do an s10 frame swap, the donor already had a 350...
