Body swap question
Love the 79, but been thinking with all the stuff on Craiglist, how hard would it be to swap a 55-59 body, front clip and bed onto the frame?

Re: Body swap question
Thanks man. This will be helpful in the future. In the mean time I'm keeping my 79 the way she is. I reconsidered it while I was out driving around. I love her the way she is.

Re: Body swap question
Or you could buy another roller frame and use that to swap bodies on.

Re: Body swap question
They have a kit for that but it uses a s10 frame not a full size truck.
