      1999 C5 drivetrain in 72 Chevelle

      We recently did a custom chassis for a 70 Chevelle, utiliIng 2005 Corvette drivetrain and rear suspension. A custom gas tank is required, along with a lot of trunk and Trans tunnel cutting and fab to fit the rear suspension and torque tube. The tube needs to be lengthened, and CV axles shortened too.
      It's still pretty costly to do the custom chassis though.. Our suspension is set up to handle like a Vette and ride very well too, for not much more than you'd spend on a custom frame to fit what you have. But it's your car, and we've done it before!

      No build thread, we just built the chassis, the customer is building the car... but here's some pics!
