One more Piece of the puzzle

[PA-IndianRider]

After "striking out" at the Parts-a-Rama swap meet over the week I was able to find a good deal on Craigs List for a narrowed 9" F**d rearend & Summers axles (with 5" Chevy bolt pattern).

After measuring the C10 and the wheel/tire combo I plan on using I realized this housing will work with what I plan to do .... made the call this morning and now it's mine.

So little by little I am gathering what I need to take our C10 from street cruiser (my original plan) to the drag strip..... so even though the BIG SWAP meet was a BUST it's been a good week or so on Craigs list.... BIG Weld wheels & slicks, 400 Turbo trans with manual shift body & 4000 stall convertor & now the rearend.

Having a HARD time finding 15 x 3 1/2" - 4" or 5" .... front wheels with 5" bolt pattern .... finding all kinds with 4 3/4" pattern ...... as you can guess trying NOT to buy NEW to get what I want.... so far I have been doing pretty good at doing that.

Guess I could switch to a 4 3/4" front spindles .... who knows ..... still keep having thoughts of a "straight front axle".... especially after going to the "Gasser Reunion"....HA!!!
