I have seen many shorten a long "bed" down to a short "bed"
But curious if any of you guys have shorten the frame as well.
I got a really good deal in a 66 GMC long bed and the front end and cab are SOLID with ALOT of new parts and seems like it would be less work to just cut the frame down and use a shortbed instead of swapping it all over to short bed chassis. I have a short bed frame just seems it would be easier to cut the longbed frame.... HELP let me know your thoughts and pictures..
