60-62 Rolling Short Frame

As pit free a frame as you will find. The front cab mounts (for 63-66 cab) have been welded on, and some repair has been done on the lower bumper mount (still fits 60-62 bumper). Cut for fuel filler hose. Welded at pass side above axle. Has a maybe later truck 12 bolt (cast 3817769). Rolling on 2008ish wheels, center holes cut to fit.
Start with a solid frame, Porterbuilt makes a ton of suspension stuff for these.
$400 for the rolling frame

The rear axle could be a 63-64 axle based on the trac bar mount. Does it have bolt on backing plates for the brakes?

Looks like the backing plates are welded or pressed from the back side.
Also the trailing arms look a little wide for the axle

Yup, that's most likely a 63-63 truck 12 bolt. The 60-62 frames had a wider spacing for the trailing arms, so when an axle is used from a 63-72 truck, most people just weld new perches to the axle right next to the original perches
