Body swap, good idea?
Alright, i have a 69 chevy c-10 with the 250, and a 3 speed. I also have a line on a 70 chevy k-10 or 20 (not sure which, haven't seen it yet) with a v8, auto, but the body is really rough for $500. The drivetrain, frame and such are supposed to be in fairly good condition.
The project, i was thinking about buying the 70 and taking the body off the 69 (redo it while it is off) and put that body on the 4x4 frame. Good idea, bad idea? How hard will this be to do? I would also paint the frame, axles, and such while it is down to the frame, and freshen up the motor. Any idea of the cost of parts needed to do this swap? Thanks for any help or suggestions JT Jones
