That's nice! I have all the parts from Flat Out Engineering to do the same. How much did you notch the front to get it that low at ride height?

Thanks!

Looking good Harvey!

Nice build!

Good choice on the vette suspension.

I saw a C4 (complete driver) at Pleasanton for $1500. Thats a lot cheaper
than an aftermarket IFS.

If you ever get tired of that GMC grill I have a nice chrome chevy grill to
trade.

Looks good. I'm planning the same build with a 55 Chevy and C4. I also want use the stock wheels good to see they will fit. What size are the Shockwaves front and rears? Looks *****en on the ground like that.
