    Future Plans

    I’m currently installing a mildly hot rodded 350 cubic inch Chevy small block with a 700r4 Automatic Transmission, a Chassis Engineering rear leaf spring relocation kit on a Camaro 10 bolt rear with a 4:11 Posi gear set, an ididit steering column and a new steering wheel. Then it’s body work and a two tone Emerald Green Metallic paint job on the body with a Pearl White roof.

      Wow--I really like the flip up front clip. Makes it alot easier to tinker on one. I have a 49 Chevy Fleetline. I,m planning on working this spring. What all did you have to do . To make it a one piece.Bolt or weld the seams.? Did you use ant tilt parts off of a cab over truck? Your doing a great job. I,m in the process of working on 2-78 Bronco,s now. Keeps me busy and at home away from from people. Your doing great work. I live in W.Va.

      So. California here and love your project. My comment mirrors the previous gentleman's. I'd love to tilt my frontend as well! Hope to see evidence of improvement soon. After reading your "Future Plans" I intend researching your described "Chassis Engineering Rear Leaf Spring Relocation Kit", as the weak link in our projects are less than acceptable rear tire width. Love your ride, signed, also staying out of trouble and away from "people". Be well, Bob
