      1949 Chevy 3100

      Hi all bare with me my first post. Bought a 49 Chevy 3100 been winter project that soon became a passion my first build. Working with some very knowledgeable friends that led me to this site. I just pulled the 327 sbc tranny will be out this week end getting ready for paint. I ordered a ls3 376/ 480 hp connect and cruise package from jegs. Anyone have one care to share.Car came with a mustang front and rear disc brakes. Any and all input would be appreciated.
      Will post more pics as project progresses. Thanks all

      Welcome! Looks like a good truck to start with. Look forward to updates. I am building a 51' 3100 with my son but his truck was pulled from a field and filled with rust. So still consumed with sheet metal repairs. Keep updating as you can. Enjoy,Chris

      Welcome,
      Nice project, what are your goals for the truck? Are you wanting to improve the handling for street or autocross?
