I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on what I could replace the front suspension on my 52 Chevy Business Coupe with. I have an idea to change the real sealed driveline with a Chevelle or Camero rear end so I can replace the rest of the driveline with a new motor and tranny(electronic). Any feed back would be much apreciated.
If your gonna' find a Chevelle or Camaro donor car for the drive train, cheapest would be to use the front suspension off the same donor car.Quote:

They make some very fine IFS for the old chebbies. I put a Mustang 2 kit on a 51, worked great.
Which IFS did you use? What engine did you use? I forgot to mark my spindle center lines when I took off my front axle and now am worried about having interference with my motor mounts and front IFS systems.
I have a 1950 Chevy Styleline Deluxe.
