Maybe look at an S10 frame.Lots of 49-54 trucks are using them.They should be narrower and might be close enough to make the grade.Add to that the engine swap kits for a smallblock and R&P steering,modern brakes and you could have a winner real quick.Heck for a cruiser the 4.3 might even be the ticket.
