Re: '60-'66 Body On A '73-'87 Frame

I'll go ahead and put my 2 cents in too.

A 2wd 73-87 is a great choice for a guy like me.

I have a 64 long bed, 3/4 ton with a seized up 3/4 ton rearend.

My choices are to:

1. do a 73-87 crossmember swap, shorten the frame and buy a 5 lug rearend

2. or buy a swb 73-87 and channel the already bad floor that needs patches and to weld the 64 cab mounts on.

Option 2 seems much easier and I can buy a 73-87 c10 junkyard truck for $200
