Finally starting on the 1953 chevy pickup my plan is to lay it flat on running boards on a s10 frame and stick a ls1 in it. I plan on suicide doors and eventually chop top to anyone that nows me i dont belive in junk work. Im going to run a parrallel 4 link in the rear and build a backhalf made out of 2x3 tubing and run some bars to the rear for the liftbars here are some pics for my intensions i will keep pics posted throughout the build. mine will be alot cleaner but this is just to get the idea. I also plan on putting 2600 dominators up front with spring pocket eliminators with suicide doors upper and lower control arms
