Maybe try truckin magazine or classic truck they have a lot of how to sections.and refrance pics and if them two dont work.maybe try mini truck website as well.on here or one of the other sites there was a person that did do a prostreet and they were very detailed what they did and how i have done it.i know revell and amt the older kits they have a chevelle that is prostreet i actually cut the back half of that and attached it to a truck one time but this is some time ago.but it is if i remember a four link suspension and ford 9" rear.it worked rather well so maybe one of these prostreet cars as well may work.hope this was some what helpful for you.look forward to seeing your build in the future.

Well, here it is... rough paint, a few chips, missing parts and all! Like I said, this is an old buildup for me, but it's fairly typical quality wise of the stuff I was building at the time.

Maybe it's time for a "Glue Bomb Redeux"?

Yep- the '70 Super Bee Pro Street ($7.00 Wal-Mart edition... the one thing I miss about shopping there :D ). I think the blower, carbs, and air cleaners (it USED to have two! ;) ) came from a Charger 500 or Daytona by AMT. What you can't see are the nasty, huge chips in the passenger's fender and the layer of dust in the cab. I'm thinking version 2.0 is just around the corner, but I'll use a second kit and display the 'new' one with this one.

Not sure if this will help, because my truck is a Pro Mod, but possibly going 4 link and doing like the other person said to Half the frame.

Here are a couple pics of one of my projects.
