Super Chevy – September 2019

TECH PUSHING STEEL

The ’55 body starts with placing the Golden Star Classic Auto Parts floor onto a fixture

that is attached to a rotary lift. The rotary lift makes getting to all of the areas to weld

easier and the fixture jig makes sure everything lines up.

Most of the pieces are resistance spot-welded with industrial, water-cooled 220V spot

welders, just like they did back in the ’50s at GM. The spot welds look “right” and it’s

a system that’s withstood the test of time. Here, Jordan Sechrest attaches the trunk floor

to the main floor section.

Real Deal Steel (RDS) offers a few options, with one of the more popular ones being

mini-tubs. Yep, for around $1,250 they can mod the body to accept an 11-inch wide wheel

with a 335mm tire. This is a ton cheaper than taking a done body to a shop to have it

done. After marking the floor with a template, the section was removed.
