I don't have any need in a 3/4 ton 133" wheelbase and I have a buyer who wants the chassis and bed for $600.

I am picking up a swb 69 6 lug drum brake frame w/ unknown rear axle ratio and stepside bed next week. I plan to blast and paint the frame and set the 396 engine and a 700r4 trans I have in it. Then install then later install the cab and front sheet metal from this truck. Somewhere in there I will install the 72 disc brakes and 5 lug 3:73 axle I have.
