Re: 56 Cameo build

I took the truck back to the guy ( wizard actually - seriously) who installed the front end and he made it right with a little tweaking. He had origionally put pads on top of the mounts in case the bolt would ever break or come out and that was part of the problem. He also cut out and made room in the crossmember and put the air conditioner compressor on the bottom where it belonged. Good clearance everywhere! The only other issue is the exhaust manifolds touch the frame rails so I am looking for a set of Camaro or Firebird LS exhaust manifolds. They tuck in closer.
Time to start reassembly in primer until I can drive it, Then disassemble and paint. Lots of hurdles to jump but I have done way more on my own than I thought possible and am very satisfied with the results so far. Glad you guys enjoy seeing the progress.
