Re: '56 Chevy Panel build (SLP)
Jared, don't forget my name on that list.
Love the one piece windows, that will really finish off the look of the panel.

Re: '56 Chevy Panel build (SLP)
What's next on the panel? Or what have you been working on we're not aware of?

Re: '56 Chevy Panel build (SLP)
I've got to save up and find me a motor to get mocked up and then steering figured out. So nothing new other than the doors.

Re: '56 Chevy Panel build (SLP)
Well it's been to cold here for me to work on the panel. Still saving up on $$$ to get an engine. I'm thinking that up next will be some of the rust repair in the firewall area and maybe pull the frame out to clean it up.
As for the mod to the doors, it was way cheaper than getting the kits you see sold. Look up the link and check it out blackdiesel tells all in the vids. Plus we even have a link to print out the window template.

Re: '56 Chevy Panel build (SLP)
We did pretty good. I think off our land we got 5 deer, one buck was nice. Forgot your last name and I'll check it out. I saw your getting ready to get the motor mounts done. I'll be checking that out as you post.

Panels and Suburbans are a little hard to find but they are out there. I picked up a suburban for parts that was shot for $165 and my panel was only $50. One thing about these are that parts are hard to come by. I got lucky and the only rust isues I have are parts that are shared with the pickup cab. So from the doors back you have to fab up yourself. A common question from guy with these are where to find lower rockers and no one makes them. Good luck

Re: '56 Chevy Panel build (SLP)
Your panel rocks!!! I just read your build and that thing is sweet. I have dealt with Justin at Scott's also and they are great to deal with. Can not wait to see this come together.

Thanks, the hubcaps will need clips added like on original wheels and I do not know the hub bore.

My dad would probably kill you for "ruining" an old panel, but i think its cool ![]() Btw, he has 17 panels and subs from 55-59, all unrestored, some old school buses suburbans, 2 1 ton panels, and 4 original V8's, and a 57 ice cream truck and a 56 original v8 bus (gm said they didnt make a v8 bus in 56 but we have one). He probably has the biggest unrestored collection in the country, granted they arent show trucks, but i wouldnt mind fixing one up someday. Keep up the good work, me likey. ![]()
