Chevrolet=one who is dignified enough to expect every occasion is a special one and sees it fit to wear a bow tie... may others come under dressed.

Re: will a 62 body fit a 69 frame?

not a direct bolt on, and some things will never quite look right, but it is doable.
There was a younger guy that was (is?) on here that had a 69 short step with a late model bed, his was on an early/mid 60's frame, bumpers never did look right on that truck. He sold it and got a square body, he pops on here from time to time. I went to his house one night when his HEI module went bad and he needed a hand troubleshooting it.

Re: will a 62 body fit a 69 frame?

you mean he mixed and matched the body? ( dont know if I read that right )

We have a frame we want to redue, then just drop a 62 truck on top of that frame....

It's actually a 64 front end, a 62 Cab and bed...hhaha make it more difficult!

Oh well, we got to get my truck done (67) before we even try tackling this project.
