Re: Something to tinker with...

Found a short wheel base parts truck, pretty well picked over now, was a 454 SS clone....now just a cab, fenders and rolling frame...oh, and a really cool steering wheel!!

Plan for it is to finish stripping down to bare frame and scrapping the rest since it really has no value as replacement parts.

Then start cleaning it up and, probably over winter start collecting replacement suspension parts.

May still play around with shortening the LWB frame, especially now that I have something to sit side-by-side and use for measurements...will see how ambitious I get.

Haven't decided if having the bare frame blasted and powder coated or just blasted and then paint it...but that won't be likely be until next spring, so no need to rush into decisions
