If money in tight, you could sell it and replace it for a 2wd with money left over. Just a thought as it seems a shame to convert an original 4x4 into a morphadite 4x4. Putting a '68 body on the Dodge frame is a great idea (provided they both have the same weelbase), I would just keep the 4x4 chevy a 4x4 chevy and find another (2wd) body for the Dodge. Just a thought.
I understand what you are sayin but I'm trying to get myself down to just one toy for now I'm wanting a car to put my big block in later on and with the way things are going now I don't think i would be able to get what I would want for the 68 4x4 now. So, if I use what I have I won't have to put a whole lot of money in it to do it since I have everything already.
