Has anyone ever done this chassis swap? I have one out of a tube chassis monza that is already back halved. Any information is good. Thanks.

I would think the wb would be to short...the height would be to low...and all the frame bars wouldn't flow with the truck....I had a tube frame monza once and can't imagine it would ever fit or be worth the trouble...

It has been stretched about 1ft or more.
