Hey Darrel,
I'm no expert, but I'll share with you what I'm doing on a '54.
Gas tank - looks like the tank out of an advanced design panel is the best
fit. I also have a custom tank from no-limit I'm planning to use. And
possibly a tank from an S10.
Steering column - I'm planning to use a tilt column from a chevy chevette.
Seat- I'm going stock.
Power brake booster - I'm going manual with a fxxd dual master cylinder in
the stock location with a simple custom bracket. The reason for the fxxd
master cylinder is the plumbing comes out the oposite side. The lines for
the chevy master cylinder would have interferred with my shift linkage.
You might aviod this problem using an automatic. Using a '75 nova front
clip and a 79 camaro 10 bolt posi rear.
