    Hi Y'all.

    bought a 58 Super 2 drHT last weekend. it's a basketcase, as one would expect. Luckily, all trim is there, just not it great shape.
    I'll just start the hate now and let you know the motor/trans/rear axle will be not remain stock. there is no motor, and the trans/axle need to go to make way for LS.

    Do need recommendations on sheet metal for front fenders, rockers, floors, trunk, trunk lid, and door skins if you have any. Appreciate you reading. Have a great weekend.

    so far as floor pans are concerned, the Super ( C-body ) is quite a bit longer than the Century ( B-body ). you'll probably have more luck trying to find pans for an Olds 98 and adapting those.

    Thank you. I have found another possible source at www.classicfabrication.com but have not called them yet to see if the floor pans and rockers they supply are for the B or C body. Maybe i'll get lucky and the front pans will be the same across all. Appreciate your response and information.

    I've been looking at Olds, Pontiac, and Cadillac parts to see if any might work on this body as well. Not very knowledgeable about the 50's GM bodies. Seems like there should be some similar parts.
