I got a chance to make a trade for a 48 5 window shortbed. The problem is the botched a camaro clip instal and put the body on a 65 swb frame. They haven`t made any mounts yet, just using wood for spacers to see how it would fit. I haven`t looked at the truck in person yet so I don`t know how it looks but from the pictures it`s pretty clean. Will the 65 swb frame work? I know I`ll have to make mounts but what about the wheelbase and track width? I`d hate to do the trade and have to find a different frame although I can find S10`s in my area all day long for around $300-500. What do you think guys?
