Re: 57 NAPCO rebuild

wheels look good at that spot in the front fenders. since it has trailing arms, which run the axle through an arc, i would say to remove the spring and run the axle through a full suspension traven run just to be sure it wont rub a tire with wheels turned to lock, both ways. it would be great to have the correct size tire for your wants but the larger size tire it has is just some built in assurance.
thanks for posting your progress, it helps the rest of us get off the couch and out in the shop. lol.
curious what engine and HP the stock donor came with too. was it roughly the same dimensionally as the LS? the hole in the floor would work either way?
nice to see your parts arrive, even if the box was only part full. hopefully everything is still straight and it will fit well.
