35 Chevy Master Sedan

[squarebob]

I have resto modded a few vehicles in the past and now have found a '35 that just drew me in. I will post lots of pics but don't know how much energy I will have to keep up a good diary. So, here goes.............. This is what I found.

I have a 36' standard ! Basically the same with the exception that you have factory suicide doors,and I have to build mine that way. I chopped mine,almost 4" , and laid the rear glass forward.I have a build thread if you wanna take a look. Any questions your in the perfect spot ! Lots of knowledge here.

The plan is for a fenderless, hoodless, airbag suspension, original patina rod. I will build my own frame and use a modified (by me) L31 vortec sbc crate motor for power. TH350 trans, 3000 stall converter and a 4:88 locker 8.8 ford axle. 31" tall tires in the rear. 4" drop tube axle up front and disk brakes all around. Wheelbase should be about 120" to 130". Stock was 113".
