looking at a 70 4x4

[chaff]

It's cheap. It has a title. It has a stretched frame 4-6 inches with a plate and welded. Owner thought it might have had a dump bed on it. It is 200 miles from here so 4 hour drive one way. I may need this as my 71 4x4 frame and running gear were stol . . . . I mean disappeared. Blown motor, no transfer case or 4 speed. I have most of the needed parts from my 71. I am sure I could part it out and make money and keep the frame. but the stretched frame bothers me.
Your thoughts.
Its cheap enough i will probably go after it as I need a frame bad.
