Strange but glad yours is going so well, I am doing a chassis swap on my 71 from an 03 s/w. I had to cut the frame down 3 inches am having to modify all the mounts, trim the front supports and engineer bumper mounts and modify the 03 factory fuel cell so the cab will sit down. Because of the big difference in chassis width, I most likely will been doing something with the rear diff. just to be able to put a decent size tire/wheel combo on it.

No sir I didn't drop off I work in Alaska and my truck is at my house in North Carolina so i get very limited time to play with it. I've gone pretty far for only having 100 hours into this build.

How did you build the body mounts did you reuse the Tahoe and just move them to line up with cab

Working in Alaska?

(speaking from back of closed mouth) 'eeh'EE? Gussack got jug? I kid....' Enter nervous laugh, the handshake that can only come from one place. The smell of fish surrounding.

Where bout in AK? I've bounced all over, up there. My daily driver, when I'm working....

Can you post some more pictures and details on what you did with the radiator core support, hood latch, headlight buckets, etc? and how you attatched the fenders? thanks

I used the Tahoe core-support and used parts of the 72 support for the fenders. I didn't like the way it turned out so I'm going to redo it and just use a 1972 core-support
