just bought a 56 Dodge truck that has been sitting for a few years. some one had previously customized the truck and added a 440 engine, tilt steering column, pedal assembly with master cylinder, 8 3/4 rear end and guage cluster out of i believe a 69-70 Imperial. I have yet to run the numbers on the motor, but the friend i bought it from (not the person who did all the work) said he ran the numbers a few years ago and remebers it being a steel crank motor. It also has the 3 speed pushbutton trans in it. i have had several late 60s and early 70s Mopars but this is my first 50s vehicle. it will be a learning experience. [image][/image]
