Hello Team!

[RedRocket]

Hey Team,
I just wanted to drop a pic of my build and say Hi! At a high level, it's '56 3100 sheetmetal on a '78 C10 chassis with a big block, QA1 suspension and Wilwood brakes all the way around. This Thanksgiving will be six years since it was torn down, it now moves under its own power which is a huge milestone.

Hi RedRocket,
Nice build underway! Have you done all the work? Be interested in know how difficult it was to marry the new chassis to the old body.
Thanks, Doug

Hi Belair-o,
I've done 95% of the work on this version of the pickup. When I bought it, the '56 body was already on the C10 chassis with the big block in it. The PO basically just welded the '56 cab mounts and radiator core support mounts onto the C10 frame and the box bolts onto the frame.

Thanks, RedRocket, for the explanation, and the pics! Very helpful! Thanks, Doug

At some point I'll start a build thread and share some of the challenges and victories I've experienced over the last six years of working on it...
