There have been several 55 to 57's done. I don't know how many 53's have been done or are being done.

believe it or not, i dont think it will be too hard to get it in there. the new front crossmember im looking at actually looks like i will be able to use the stock oil pan. the motor mounts are set back like 2 inches from the lower cross member. ill still might have to rework it, but not so much. i figure ill have to recess the fire wall, but i figured i would have to do that even with a carbed 350.

Please proceed with this project. I think the 53' body style is too cool!

kind of toying with the idea of 100 shot of nitrous.

So how did it work out? I am in the middle of doing the same for my 14 year old daughter, could use some advice.
