Its great that you've been driving it. It does look like it could use a refresh in areas, the rewards of driving.Last edited by 53 Chevy5; 05-28-2023 at 06:01 AM.

Stripping the chassis down.
Factory independant front end still works extremely well and with a few modern additions ( disc brakes, better shocks, sway bar) will do for another 89 years.
