Just picked up this beauty

Hello, New member Bud here. I have a '55 Belair 2 door post Im restoring, and I've always wanted a '55 Chevy p/u sitting next to it in the garage. I've been quietly reading up on IFS, frame swaps, LWB to SWB mods, in anticipation of getting a 1955 Chevy long bed. I traded a running 1993 Ford Bronco for one yesterday. I trailered the Bronco from NE Pa to Pittsburg, and trailered the '55 Chevy truck back.

Im curious as to how much modification the '90 to '96 Chevy caprice frame needs at the step location. Any pics and comments are appreciated. I am a Welder/Fitter/Mechanic/Technician by trade, so im up to it. But.... I don't want to do anything that will take integrity out of the frame. I will post pics soon. Moderators please relocate this post if not in the correct section.

Thanks, Bud
