Hi Harry, I welcomed you into the Tri-five.com forum when you joined, so hello again. My '57 Star Chief has a front clip from a 1978 Monte Carlo, which gives all of the modern advantages of disc brakes, power steering, ball joints, and front sway bar. This work was all done before I imported the car into New Zealand, so I don't know how much work it took, but I imagine a fair bit.
It sure makes the Star Chief handle like a dream, and is very easy to drive and steer.
