Anybody out there have any interest in a 175" W.B. One ton Dually chassis?This is a 68 installed under an "Open Road" motorhome. Very clean, 61,000 miles. Coach builder installed a 18" extension in frame to a 157" factory long frame. Cab-n-chassis style. Front end and rear end are perfect. 457 gear ratio.
Asking $750.00 O.B.O.
Might be able to be used under a quad cab truck.

Is it stretched, or did you mean 157"?

DOH!! Now I feel dumb when I was just trying to help. I guess I should read the whole dang thing! Sometimes I think I may be somewhat dyslexic and when I saw the two numbers swapped I wondered if you might have made the same kind of mistake I make sometimes. Oh well, I guess I'm the only defective one here...bummer

I'd think this frame could be shortened to the 133"WB if anyone wants to build a dually PU. even if no one has the need for the longer length. For that matter, I don't see why it couldn't be shortened to 127" to take a regular bed. Again, just trying to help (hopefully?)

No worries. I agree. Just trying to reach out there and see if someone has a need for it. It could be shortened into any configuration needed.
Have a good one,

You are selling just the chassis?
or are you selling what is in the picture, including cab, etc...

cooperhw · 01-23-2015, 10:10 PM

Just the chassis for the listed price.

**nlped** · 01-24-2015, 12:35 PM

Bump for you... I hope you can get it sold

cooperhw · 01-29-2015, 11:22 AM

Price too high?

really just wanting to pass this chassis along intact to someone wanting to build a crewcab or ramp truck.

Hate to bust it up. May just have to haul it up to my mountain property and let er simmer a bit. Don't cost nuthin to sit. Might figure out a use for it someday.

Anybody?

I let a guy have an old crewcab parts truck who used it to build a mini Pete. I have a friend with a lumber business. they stretched a long 1t and added a tag axle with a 16' flatbed.
