Re: Old School Hot Rod Truck (1964)

Well I wanted this thing to handle like a sports car as much as possible (lol) so I decided to go with an old 3/4 ton swap bar off of a 80 something Chevy 3/4 ton truck. It bolted right up ( 85 lower control arm used). I removed one of the rivets on the front and the hole spacing was perfect for the mounts. I drilled 2 holes. I tried doing this with the engine in and couldn't get the rivet to come out (even tried an air hammer). I was using a grinder. Maybe all of you with a plasma torch might have better success. Later plans include a rear sway bar. I'll follow up with that one.
