BAD ..................... my trucks frame is FUBAR, I thought only replaceable parts like trailing arms were rotted but apparently the frame is damaged where the trailing arms would bolt on, the guy who will do the restore says I need a new frame. This sucks
we did verify that the truck only has 26,903 miles on it, for some reason i thought it was over 30k
not sure what to do next, is there a way to fix the frame? does it make sense to just buy a 2nd truck and restore from there with parts from both?
In the end, at a minimum, I just want a 1968 C-10 shortbed stepside with MY vin #
given my situation, how should I accomplish this?
