Frame questions
 
i found a rolling chassis and the guy wants $1500 for it! it has to be 71-72 as it looks to have disk brakes. it is a swb chassis with no title.
the questions are: is this a bit much on price?
where do you find more chassis to compare prices?
anyone have a lead on a k10 frame?
I have a 67 swb small window that someone put on a 73-80s 4x4 frame and cut the fenders to fit, not the route i want to go! I have a donor escalade i was going to swap everything but Im have second thoughts! tia

If it’s a 4x4 frame I’m not that surprised. Thats kinda steep for around here but not out of the question. The 4 wheel drive frames are lots harder to find and when you do find them they seem to be more likely to be beat up.

Sounds a little high at 1st but if you stop to consider you already have all your brake parts and a 5 lug rear and it is a shortie. I have seen them from 500 on up and they are headed up, as is anything that is factory short. I don't know what route you are going and like above, don't know if it is a 4x4 frame. Either way there are some saleable parts on it if you do decide to use your running gear.

tutone great point that adds to the thought process for sure!! I would really love to find a k10 chasssis! i may stick the origonal plan of using the firewall, floor and chassis from my 06 escalade. that would make it awd with full modern suspension and hydro brakes.

If that rolling chassis dont have a running motor with a shifting transmission then yes, way to much money especially with no title!

I think you are paying a premium for the SWB.

In my area a LWB frame is going for around $500 asking price. SWB in the same condition goes for around $1800 - 2200 (asking price).

Same thing is true for beds.
