These guys are 173 miles due south of me and turn out a beautiful but not cheap chassis.

https://www.rydmanranch.com/ I've talked to them at the Portland Roadster show and took photos of their chassis.

Art Morrison makes a great chassis for an AD or any Chevy truck and their price for a roller while expensive competes real well with having a shop install a Heidts or comparable front suspension and a 4 link rear in a stock chassis when all is said and done. I've been around those guys at events for years and they drive what they sell. I'd say not only the company AD but half the employees rides are test beds for their products.

I'd say that if you are dead serious and have the coin set aside to pull the trigger hit the big NSRA and or Goodguys events within driving distance trailer in tow ready to buy and chat up the vendors who have the right chassis on display. If you are brave enough come Sunday morning anything those guys haven't sold becomes a real good deal if they don't have to pack it up and haul it back to the shop. If they have one and you are brave enough to wait them out until Sunday you can save a lot of money if you are prepared to haul it out at closing time.
