Re: My 61 Build (Grandfathers truck clone)

I started out with a 1960 and tinkered with the motor mounts but as soon as I put an automatic tranny in I had to change motor mounts. I am now using a 1964 frame for several reasons. The torsion bars don't get in the way of exhaust and any suspension items I want cost on average 20% less than the 1960-63 frames and they are easier to come by. I did have to cut the cab mounts off the 60 frame and weld them onto the 64 frame, I suspect you'll have to do the same.
