Keep in mind, there is potential in every project. Mine is in worse shape than that, so get at it and good luck!!! Jerry

i'm not sayin that there isn't potential. it was just bein a problem when i first got it so the name just stuck. i think problem child sounds more bad ass than frankenstein. but frankenstein would fit it too since its a 60 body with a 62-66 hood, 71 c10 steering column, sitting on a mid 70's c10 blazer frame, with a 350/350 short shaft powering it.

It is....looks like a mid/late 80's bumper. Bed looks like it isn't a full 6ft either. What's the length? Jerry

Re: photos of project problem child
 
me and a few people have been tryin to figure out what the bumper is. i've been thinking that it may be a 67-72 gmc bumper or possibly a dodge bumper. the bed was bobtailed and tailgate welded up by the person that started this project. the bed doesn't even have a bed floor. as for the length, i have no idea. i think that it may be just 6 foot. i'm talking to a guy what is turning his dodge short bed ex-cab into a long bed ex-cab about getting his old step side off of him.

i plan on it. i'm thinking for paint doing a body line separation. from the body line up either gloss competition orange or a metalic orange. for the body line down either a gloss jet black or metalic gloss jet black. and for the rims get some chrome 14" baby moons. yeah baby!!!:metal:

that is a frankenstein and will be a beautiful one once you get it started...see mine is just as much of a problem child only not physically..just paperwork wise..it doesn't have a title...so i can't drive it right now...or register it for that matter...so the guy that i bought it from and I are supposed to look at finding a title for it or getting it or whatever....I don't even want to fix mine up that much just make it a mud truck and leave the rust and what not for character

hey semperfi, i'm assuming that you are in the marines from the semperfi, what unit are you attached to?? i'm a fellow ordie up at whidbey island in washington. one way that you can get a title is filing for a lost title. you will have to get an inspection by either state patrol or the local pd, can't remember which.
