Re: Help Identifying Front Clip and Suspension Parts on 1956 Chevy Pickup

I stick to my original comment which coincides with with 1958Warrior In that it is a 75 to 77 Monte Carlo subframe . Still almost all parts interchange with Mullet Camaro, 73/77 Chevelle, Regal, Cutlass, Lemans outside of the sway bar bushings and maybe a couple of other things. The frames are slightly different but almost all the pieces that bolt to them are the same.
I think it also looks very close to the mid '70s G body. I have yet to find a frame with the same driver's side access holes but I have looked at enough of them to believe the frame is a close cousin at minimum.

Bushing numbers and casting numbers will go a long way toward solving this mystery.

I've seen way to many frame clips as well. I did learn that the bolt sizes are one of the few markers as to year. Inch or metric, and of course the bushing numbers. If all three were found I think you could get body style and year within 3 years
