55 Chevy Truck Build...Finally
My brother is building a 68 stepside with an LS and I am building a 55. Thought Id post some pics and also get some ideas. On the Tri-Five site too but you never know who can help or inspire. My friend Tony and I have started the body work and are working on the Mar-K bed now. "stole" Bam's rounded corner idea, added a third brake light, mini tubs and general smoothing. Still have to replace a portion of the cab corners as the previous owner "tried" to mount to a car chassis and cut them. Plans call for rounding the front edge of the doors, filling the bed pockets, may still play with the roll pan/stake pockets, fill the inside seams, and WISH I had the balls to section the hood. The chassis has a TCI front, booster mounted to the frame and a 4 link rear with disc brakes.
