seller has it listed incorrectly, not a 34 that chassis is a 35 standard with whats left of X member.  Get cutting torch out and scrap front suspension and go ford axle super bell , cross spring, 4 bar.

Change the vet rear end system to correct cross member to lower it with coil overs as stock buggy spring will ride like dump truck.

Would make a nice traditional looking period 50--60's chev, or lift body on top of frame and go hi-boy instead.

I'm wondering what they were thinking when they did the roof.

It's on Craigslist also:

A tremendous amount of the early cars ford and chevy got modified by people who had no idea what they were doing and how to do it right .  Example that ugly dash panel somebody made.

Eventually they run out of bondo and push what might have been a decent car into the corner trying to find somebody else with same distorted vision they had...If your more than 5 ft 6 inches tall your never going to get comfortable in a chopped and channeled car.

Tighten it up til it strips, then back it off a quarter turn
