    New guy here

     



    Hi everyone Im new to the site.I just bought a 1951 Chevy Styleline Coupe.It had alot done to it and I want to do more mods myself.It has a Nova sub frame with a chevy small block,350 turbo and a Ford 9"w/ 411's.Its pretty much a rat but thats how I like em.I still want the Rat Rod look but I also want a reliable machine.So I want to do some electrical upgrades with a painless harness.I also think a rack and pinion steering would be nice also.Power brake booster ect.I would like alot of feedback and advice.This looks like a good forum to get it.

    Welcome to CHR! If you'll resize your picture we can read your post without scrolling across three or four screens. Here's a link that explains the process, if you need it.

    Very cool! Sounds like you are looking to do some weekend projects on it, while being able to drive it? Essentials are always good to upgrade-brakes & steering. I agree with you on upgrading your wiring, many people have had their pride and joy go up in flames due to faulty wiring. I put an EZ Wiring kit in my 56. The kit was super easy to put in and didi everything advertised.

    Car looks ready to cruise as is. Or a great start as a more involved project. Tough as nails either way.

    Hey,dog,,We opened a photobucket account,stick the pix in there first,then transfer the ones we want to the forum..They automatically resize..Much easier.
