55 Chevy LS build thread

[Fummins04]

Hello to all the members here! New to the forums and the build..Figured I'd join the party and post my build as it goes. Won't be the fastest build but should be lots of fun and learning along the way!

Been in search of a older Chevy truck for a while now finally found a good deal locally..Picked up the truck just this past weekend Dec. 15,2014.. Basically I'm starting with a solid shell.. Cab,bed,hood,rear window and side windows are all there.. Frame is factory.. However someone already installed some kind of mustang II front end which is a plus! As well as supplying me with a ford 9in and C- notching the rear as well and welding tabs for the 4 link. However I plan to cut the rear out and redo it all my way because I'm not satisfied with previous owners welds and design.

So plan of attack is to start at the back and work to the front to make a solid rolling chassis then go to front along with brakes n steering! Any insight please share ideas info before or along the road of this build! And bare with my while I try to figure out how to upload pics from my phone
