this is a rolling frame with out the wheels to roll on, haha posi rear end, new front end stuff like brakes and rotors no tranny no motor $300.00
im thinking about building a 2wd, and a friend of mine has this stuff, and also a 99% rust free cab forsale also, but that isnt included with the frame. just need some input on if i should buy this later on

Matt, he selling thecab too?? got an idea on price????

matt_field · 04-20-2003, 09:58 PM

im not sure, ill have to ask him, he said it has no rust at all, just a good sized dent in one rocker so you would probably have to replace that. im thinking he wants around the 300 - 500 range for that to.. not sure on it though ill keep ya updated

Buy it!! They are getting tough to find. I thought I got ripped off for buying my 71' Cheyenne for $2600. The cab is actually made of rust. But the bed, front clip and most importantly the frame are perfect. I bout the truck because it was a 2 owner, never wrecked truck because the short bed frames (the straight ones anyway) are becoming harder and harder to find.
