Newbie to restoration....
Hey all. I just recently picked up a 1951 Chevy fleetline 4 door. It is a manual with a 216 motor. It is is very good condition. Needs interior and has some rust spots. Nothing too cancerous. My plan is too Put a 350/350 turbo trans in it, Mustang II front slip to support the airbag suspension. The body and interior will remain pretty stock. I just dont really know where to start?? Should I have the Eng/trans and suspension work done before body work? Should I pull the motor and interior and start "cleaning" up the rest (paint engine bay and stuff)? I want to start but seem overwhelmed with ideas and need a starting point!
Any help would be much appreciated.
I will post pics once my project starts
Ditto on the model kits! My best were lost when the Hobby Shop burned under suspicious circumstances....
How did you get hooked on cars?
