New to the site! Looking for 55-59 Chevy advice

[NW Task Force]

I have lurked around the website for a while and have decided to join in. I own a 1957 Chevy 1/2T stepside pickup. The truck currently has a 77' Camaro front clip under it. My project has only made it this far in the last 13yrs of owning it. I have all the other pieces (small block chevy, TH350 automatic, and 3rd gen Firebird rearend. I need to put all these items together to get this ol' gal back on the road. I am looking for folks who have put the same combo under their 55-59 Chevy/GMC trucks. Any advice/tips/tricks would be greatly appreciated.
