Re: 1956 Chevy 3100 Corvette Suspension
Well this is becoming a too familiar theme. The truck has been pulled from another shop and its already at another. Hopefully with a faster timeline I can get this thing done. Hoping to see some paint soon.

I got some more parts in for the truck. I finally ordered my March Performance billet ac brackets. I also got some billet specialties billet door handles and window cranks, Dakota Digital VHX gauge cluster with the gear shif sender and electric fan controller.

Vintage air wants close to $100 for some chrome plastic ones so I figured I would order these and see how they are. I must say they are pretty damn nice. I'm happy with them. They also turn side to side.

I added a panel to the bottom of my dash so that's where the vents are going to go.

Here's an early pic of the under dash panel. It's since been cut out to accommodate my steering column and body work has been finished. We made the wheel tubs.
