    Sub Frame for my 51 Buick

     



    Anyone know what I can get a sub frame from for my 51 Buick Special? I'm hoping to fined a car that I can use the disc brakes and power boster from. I also would like to be able to drop in a big block.

    I don't know the rail width on your buick, but I have used 70s camaro subframes for many older cars you get disc brakes mtr mounts and power steering in one shot

    With a camaro sub you can also get headers ,narrowed control arms,bigger sway bars,Nova subs are good also because they are rear steer and sometimes this can work to your advantage. Companys like Air Ride Technoligies,Fatman,Detroit speed offer cool stuff for these subframes
    Take it easy, and if it's easy take it twice
