Just completed this build. I used the rollbar from the USA-1 kit, the flares are from the old GMC Jimmy kit, I added some slash cut exhaust tips, raised the suspension, wired the engine bay, and swapped in an auto trans. Oh yeah, I also grafted on the cowl induction scoop from the '70 Chevelle kit.

Just used some square rod for the spring front mounts and made some shackles for the spring rear mounts. You can see how I did it in the chassis pic.

What tires are those? I'm either being fooled or those are actually rubber mud terrains

They're actually Goodyear tires from a 1/24 diecast pickup.
