wasn`t sure where to put it so mods, move it if you have too.

anyway, saw a 1956 buick 2 door roller for sale pretty cheap. are the chassis similar to the 55-57 chevys? Will the suspension interchange front and rear? Thanks.

No Buicks are torque tube drive in '56. The car frames are totally different.

Thanks. I was thinking about picking it up and making a street/strip car and put my 454 in that and leave my elky as a driver but I think it would be too much hassle to set the chassis up. There is a 56 4dr wagon for less that would be a better candidate. Thanks again.
