Try to sell or should I scrap 1967 GMC LWB Frame - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have a 67 GMC LWB Leaf suspension frame that I just pulled the cab and front clip off of. I have been thinking about making a trailer out of the bed and frame or taking it to scrap when I make a run...(once the price of steel comes back up)

Instead of slicing it up or scrapping it I was wondering if there was a market for LWB Leaf suspension frames of hte 67 GMC Variaty?

Right now I am only considering getting rid of the frame only at this point not the bed.

Is there a market for this type of frame or do I have a pig that needs to be taken away or "trailerized"? Just looking for an opinion right now.

Thanks,
Thomas

being you are in texas where there is no real frame rot issue, I doubt it's worth much.
You can list it for sale, post it on c/l, and if it doesn't sell in 6 months, scrap it.
Don't count on scrap prices coming back up. Even though they are 1/2 what they were last summer, it's still higher than it has been in 15 yuears with that quick jump over the last year.
