Ross Morrison's '50 Chevy truck... (below is a pic for inspiration...!)
|
||||
|
This is going to be his works vehicle... |
This is when it was still in the States |
Although it looks rough, it's really solid original panels. |
||
|
This was the day they picked it up from Sheffield. |
Back at the yard... |
|||
|
The plan is to use air bags for maximum lowering!! |
||||
|
Cab removed... |
This is a mock-up of the height he wants it to be when parked |
This is the chassis sandblasted and primered. |
||
|
The engine, purchased from a bloke in Essex. On the right, is a pic of the chassis, with the gearbox mock-up,( it's a Getrag 5speed box from an XJS!) and the air bag pump in place. |
||||
|
This is the truck with the cab back on. |
Rear leaf springs have been replaced with a 4-bar system with a panhard rod. (deliberately bent to give clearance for the differential at lowest ride height.) |

|
Mustang 2 front suspension at maximum drop |
offering engine up... |
|||
|
trial fit of the front panels. |

|
Rear air bags and suspension in place... |
