Re: 71 chevy on 65 frame?

I am sure it can be done, but it will require some modifications of mounts here and there.

Hopefully some one that has actually done one of these will chime in.

well i know for sure the front for the bumper is different and most likely the cabmounts but the bed and motor mounts should be the same
