Guys. Enough of this type of language associated please!!
You mean like the Chevys with MOPAR rearends? Who or what defines where "modified" ends and "sodomized" begins? Are they all "molested"?
Hotrodding is all about making a car better with stronger, more powerful, or safer parts. The only restored car I personally would ever own is a 60's muscle car, preferably a Chevy. Restored 50's cars belong in parades and museums along with Model As and Ts. LOL.

Robert, do you have any other tri5 Chevys?
Seatbelts are not "original" so it's been "molested" as far as I'm concerned.
Looks like it's been re-painted at least once. Why is there so much rust in the roof area and doors if this is a California car? I thought it was drier than hell there.
And there's more PROOF that the "California Frame" thing is bogus. This is a California car and it has 2-piece frame.

Who runs a mopar rear end, my 55 currently has a Dana 60 from a 72 GMC pickup, I also have one with a different ratio Dana from a Ford. My 56 has a 57 Oldsmobile rear end. I have never ran a Mopar rear end in anything. Actually a Chrysler Corp. Pass. car Dana 60 is a different housing casting and worth a bunch of $$$$. They are machined and drilled for a pinion snubber.

As far as rear ends go there is nothing cooler than a quick-change other than the gear whine. 10.5 inch 4:86 ring gear and I've run several gear ratios from the current 3.69 to a 6.13 gear just for fun.There are like a hundred different ratios that can be changed in 15 minutes. $75 for a pair of any gear.
