yep a gen 2 camero 10 bolt is a bolt in for the '49-'54's. Restomod type car will hold a better value because they appeal to some restorer's/ collectors. the '50-'59 or 60 PG would bolt up, the only powerglides that would be correct for a '52 is a '50-'52 powerglide. they have an odd shift pattern, it's PNLDR and they don't shift themselves, you shift it yourself below 45 MPH for ither gear, you don't need to start off in low, you can start off in drive. they whine like a blower in park too. I would suggest finding a 235 if you are going to PG it. they were the only engine available with the PG, but you would end up being a slug, my '235/ PG powered '51 is pretty much wound out at 60-65 MPH and the PG cars have a 3.55 rear end, and the 3spd 216 cars have a 4.10 so you would end up wound out around 55 MPH, you would need a PG 3.55 rear end from a '50-'54 CarYou don't know what you've got til it's gone
