Got two big accomplishments done

Well I finally got some major miles stones done.
1) I now have a rolling chassis!!
2) I came up with a name for my truck "Snowball"
The reason is it started out as take the sheet metal off for painting.
But Resulting in:
-Finding out the frame was tweeked. So I replaced the '67 with a '71
-Converting it to a SWB
-Relocating the gas tank to the rear
-Converting the rear axle to five lug
-Converting the rear to disc brake
-Adding front and rear anti-sway bars
-Blasting the frame and painting it
-Replacing all the suspension components

So as you can see the name fits. Now I just need to get the passenger door cleaned up. The bottom inside corners are rotted out, had at least three different mirrors on it and it took a hit in it. After dealing with repro parts I'd rather put the time in fixing the door than fighting with a repro parts.
