Decision time

I guess it's time to make a couple of decisions with my '58 step side. I already pretty much know what engine, tranny, rear end, tires, wheels, color the and interior is going to be.

I just haven't decided on the front clip. The truck came with a complete Camero clip if i want it. I can't decide between the Camero clip or a front suspension from Fatman's, Heidts, TCI, etc. The Camero clip will have to be rebuilt. That's no big deal. The wife works for a major parts chain so price isn't that much of a factor. Lots of work to install. An aftermarket Mustang type set up will be all new and much easier to install. That's my problem. I trust my welding enough to do rear ends, motor mounts, etc., but not really enough to do a Camero install so that one would have to be farmed out. I could do the aftermarket front end if i took my time, measured often, weld a little, measure...

Then comes the master cylinder. Use the stock pedal set up or go with a firewall mounted set up?

Keep in mind, this will be a daily driver, but i'll enter a local show now and then, so i'm looking for clean, simple and reliable.

Any thoughts?
