Hello Everyone
I just purchased a 1956 Chevy 4400 that was used as a logging truck.
I am going to make a car hauler out of it. It's in pretty bad shape but I will save it.
I have looked the internet all over and cannot find any technical information on this size truck besides the truck assemble book. I know the cab is a regular size but the front fenders and hood are bigger (need where to find parts) patch panels for fenders etc. etc. If any one had been down this road let me know and give me some inspirations. What rear end will fit so I can swap, what front suspension upgrades will work. I will keep the body stock but upgrade running gear so it will go down the road. I will be hauling a 1970 Z28 on the back pulling a trailer with a 1937 chevy coupe. Want to carry all my toys to the car shows around the southeast.
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Bobby
