Question: think this is a Vette?

[WhalePirot]

They're obviously '84 Corvette Z51 rims, steering rack...

C-4 Dana rear, and LOOKS like a C-4.

It is a 1955 F**d F100 truck frame, guys, adapted to use early C-4 suspension, my original L83 (now a carbureted 383) and a 700R4. At 700# lighter than a C-4, this truck will handle and stop very well.

The center crossbrace stiffens the old flexible frame and allows the newer suspension to work as designed; also removable for drivetrain work.

I posted this here because I though my fellow C4 buds would SEE and enjoy it, instead of getting lost in the other car section.

Looks like some nice work.

Cool! :cool

You may be interested in taking a look at this thread I posted with pix of my uncle's mid-50's FORD truck. He did a fantastic job on it and she's a beaut!

Sure it is as long as it handles and performs like one...as far as I'm concerned thats the same way I feel about those HIDEOUS c5's and c6's!
