    Hi, this is my build up of my 61 skylark. Going to be a gasser not a truck though, just havn't gotten the front tires altough I have the wheels sittting inside it. Anyways so far it lost the subframe up front and all susp in back. Up front now I have a straight tube axle and parallel leafs and in back I have parallel leafs and a ford 8.8. Also installed a big 2x4 cross brace to and used it to mount rear hangers. Lastly I cut out the hat channels in the floor and ran 2x2 tube in there as subrfame connectors and a place to mount a rollcage if needed. The engine is going to be a buick 350 I bought from someone on here, hopefully blown in some way.:3gears: http://www.v8buick.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=124171&stc=1&d=1224735812

    Sorry, only kinda from sd. Pretty nice place though. The hills are awsome for cruising. How do you know if its a 61 or 62. Kinda trying to figure that out because the place I bought it is trying to get a title for me. All there stuff says its a 61 Sport coupe Skyark.
