Re: Bringing my old 54 back home.

I don't have any good pics right now.
I will take some for you though, when it gets home. By months end. I have to drive my half of the 7hr ride to get it.

And as far as I am concerned, the G-body is the PERFECT clip for these.

Perfect track width. Not too wide. I can put a 6 or 7" wheel up front, and still roll low.
The tires in those pics are 15X6 with...I think...a 215/75/15 tire

I've had several with MII frontends, which I though were too narrow, and several with camaro clips. Only one, which was a 69 camaro clip, was good, the others were mid 70's clips, and I thought were too wide.

Purely my opinion. But I've owned alot of these trucks. Built a couple myself, including the baresteel 53 Suburban, and I like the G-body clip the best.
And since he completely rebuilt it, it should be even better than it was before. Plus drop spindles instead of cut coils.
