Re: 50 Chevy Trck Chassis
We need some more pictures of the work on the chassis. Pictures that were a bit bigger would be nice too.

Re: 50 Chevy Trck Chassis
WOW!
I Love everything except the air cleaners.
You have a sweet "high dollar" chassis build and the engine is amazing,... but the air cleaner set up kills it for me.
Put a nice Billet Specialties billet air cleaner on top of that big block,...

Re: 50 Chevy Trck Chassis
Hey Guys,

Thanks for all the comments. We have been working on this frame for about a year. There have been alot of hours put into this build.
The motor is a 496 stroker, pushing 600hp, and 550 ft lbs torque. The trans is a 400 Turbo, custom built to handle the hp and torque of the motor. The rear end is a custom ford 9 inch round back with 370 posi gears.
Here are a few more pics.

Re: 50 Chevy Trck Chassis
''sick'' - meaning you did a beautiful job on the chassis -looks great ! - i am ''old'' also but sometimes certain vernacular works! - you did a ''great job'' - hope that sounds better !

"Sick" is also used here in Australia as another word for Cool or Awesome mainly with the younger lot.
