Hi guys,

I am looking at a 48 GMC cab over appears to be long nose model, to buy. Has anyone of you guys put the cab on a current truck frame say late 90's up Chev/GMC frame. So I get the old look but can drive it anywhere. I understand its a major project just kind of more concered bout frame widths, front frame horn clearence, core support issues. Any feedback positive or negitive welcome. Just got all of my 503 parts back so my 56 will be done soon need another project.
