BRL · 09-20-2020, 11:42 PM

In a word...no.

JMO.

57taskforce · 09-20-2020, 11:43 PM

No... but that’s just me. I think as it sits it’s a beautiful truck.

I have a similar 72 truck that is 100% rustfree Highlander that has a wrecked frame on the passenger front , Black too that I have thought about cutting but cant do it . Yours I definitely would not cut , its a Beauty as is .

**Fbks_Cruiser** · 09-20-2020, 11:59 PM

Too nice to cut...

Sevens · 09-21-2020, 12:09 AM

It seems to me like it would be a great candidate for a new No Limit or Roadster Shop chassis, either long or short! Get it down in the weeds and do it right if the $$$ is not a concern.

gmc684x4 · 09-21-2020, 01:10 AM

Unless there is frame damage i will say no too clean a truck to cut down

**Richard** · 09-21-2020, 01:20 AM

Going to keep it? It is yours, make it what you want. If selling is probable in future leave it alone. Then again if you are doing most of the work yourself. You may come out okay depending on how much you value your time.

**Already Gone** · 09-21-2020, 01:30 AM

Please, no, no, no and never. A Black Cheyenne Super BB and I suppose has A/C and more goodies, oh my please don't..

67swb72klb · 09-21-2020, 01:43 AM

Remember this
It won't ride as good if you cut it...

**68bowtie** · 09-21-2020, 02:29 AM

Hm. That doesn’t seem like your m.o. And no, most definitely no.
