not2oldchevy, No it was not to bad. I used a G body frame and lengthened it and cut the back section of the frame off behind the coil spring perches and replaced it with 2x4 box tube. I made my own rocker panels and the g body frame is close to the rocker panel. I did not buy any of the panels and I think I did the rockers and then had to modify the inner doors, but they were rusty and need fixed anyway. The frames are cheap and I did not have to use any spacers up front.
