    Find inspiration in your videos. I'm also working on a '56 and focusing on getting it ready to drive instead of replacing floor panels, etc. Can't wait to get the 283 installed with a M21 4 speed. Keep up the good work!

    whats very nice about that style bell is the clutch or throw out can be fixed on the side of the road or in a parking lot a nice fixable option the clutch will come rite out the bottom leaving the clutch disc being able to go on loose to line the tranny shaft up with simply tighten the pressure plate after the tranny is put in

      That's a neat thing to point out. Also if a guy swaps to a Muncie later it would be a snap.

    Richard the bellhousing is correct for a 56 car. You could try putting a small regulator on your blaster and run it a 80 psi. Your compressor will keep up better and I believe you will be happy with the results.

      That’s awesome. Sounds like a great combo of parts. A wagon would be cool. I hope you’re able to start enjoying the car as soon as possible.

    If you were in PA, I'd help you move! I've got the time and a 49 Chevy truck! Ok, I'd only give you my time! 😄 I don't envy you, moving sucks, but thanks for another great video, the 56 is shaping up!

    • @freemansgarage
      @freemansgarage  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I appreciate that. Nothing like a 49 Chevy rolling down the highway with the bed full of junk. The worst part will be moving cars.

    Glad to see your back on the 56.I like your idea not to replace the floor pan just now,and to get the car rolling and driving.

    if you use the half floorpans from carsinc you can get decent american made steel ones the rust at a much slower rate the pans can be changed with the body on nice option

    • @freemansgarage
      @freemansgarage  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I've looked into the half floorpans before but it looked like they don't come with the bracing. My bracing needs to be replaced. I will look at the half floorpans again though.

    I would hit it with angle grid with a wire wheel first and use the blaster for the hard spots.

    Please tell me you are not leaving Texas, eh. I’m writing Supply razor company to see if they will sponsor your show. The only guy on the TH-cam that can save a 56 Chevy while shaving 3 times a day!. Take care you are the best.
    P.S. Great clean up after the Nash Ramblings :)😊.

    Someone replaced your clutch fork pin with a round head Philllips head screw. It is just a standard clevis pin with a hole in the bottom and if you have a hardeare store in your area (most are gone now in favor of what looks like a department store) they should have an assortment.

      @@freemansgarage I think the catalogues from Cars, Inc are free. Lots of pictures but the index has a number of pages incorrect. As I find them, I correct the list for future use. They press their own steel and tell you if they make it or if imported. They us proper gauge as the factory used. Every year at Spring and Fall Carlisle, they have their 2 piece full floors on display. They are a thing of beauty. Unpainted which I kinda like. What is the quality of that black coating on imported steel?

      After the military I followed my kid from California to Texas. No I don’t know Mortske but I am aware of him. I wouldn’t be too surprised if we have a mutual acquaintance. The farm I bought the ‘56 from was in his backyard.
