Should I build up a second frame while I drive my truck??

Just an FYI.

Sure hate for someone to show up with a matching title for a frame that you have a bunch of time and money into. Because if they have their name on the title, they own that frame. Works that way in ANY state.

That being said, it sure seems like a great way to minimize down time.

You know I dont think Ive ever seen a roller chassis before sell with a title or anything. So thank you for the heads up, Ill have to look into it a bit more. Dont these frames tend to have the manufacture date though and not the full vin? Unless its on the frame rails under the cab Ive never seen a VIN on mine.

That's crazy, I just cleaned and painted the front of my frame on my C10 when I swapped my 5.3 in and there wasn't anything there on my current frame. Thank you for the heads up on location.

Is yours a 67 gmc? For some reason most 67 gmc's don't have the stamping. Not sure why

Mine is a 70 Chevy actually. At least from all my paperwork, but its been a mutt to some degree, the plate in the cab and tailgate are chevy but the front end was GMC. So who knows haha
