Heinz69 truck build

[69chevytrucker]

Like the title says this 69 is going to be a mix breed of truck that i know will offend some and excite others!!!!
Here it is a 1969 c10 (body) with a 1984 blazer (frame) with a bit of 2000 silverado (seats) 1998 chev (engine) and this is what you get..

Told my son to let me know if something dumb was happening lol he must have thought this was fine (oops forgot to disconect something)

[69chevytrucker]

Made a jig to pick up my cab (saw it online somewhere) works great one man job

[69chevytrucker]

that is where im at right now
more to come !!!!

[69chevytrucker]

And that only took me 5 hours to do all by myself just using a cherrypicker

[69chevytrucker]

Ford has bigfoot i think i will call this chevy little toe

[69chevytrucker]

Does anyone like or hate this idea ??

[69chevytrucker]

nothing from anyone was this a bad idea i think it will look good with a 5 foot box and yes im going to cut down my 8 foot box im lifting the body 3 inches

[Justin@EntropyRad]

I think it will be cool!

I love these threads where people do things different. Great job of using what you have!

[flashed]

Im in to see it .

[cooperhw]

Cool. I'm in. I will stick around and see how it turns out.

Years and many cars ago I put a 53 Chevy 5 window cab truck on a blazer frame. It came out pretty good.

What are you doing for body mounts ?

i plan to make them the front cab mounts are in the same spot the rad mounts are out a bit but no big deal to fab something for that . the rear cab mounts are going atop the frame should all work with a 3 inch body lift right now everything clears with 2x4 blocks separating the cab from the frame i will take lots of pics as i mount the body to the frame

[69chevytrucker]

so i got my box off and pulled my engine and took my tires off my 69 frame, now i have a 69 frame sitting in my back yard with a 84 silverado front clip on it so it has power steering and disc brakes and 5 bolt rear axles . what should i do with it is it just scrap metal or is it worth anything. i would hate to just chuck it but i dont know if they are a dime a dozen or not

[69chevytrucker]

update got the cab set right where it needs to be, so far every thing is going as hoped for.

[69chevytrucker]

so some will cry with the next pics started cutting up my original 1969 rust free long box into a super short 73 in short box









my idea is to do the weld on the edge of the front of the box to avoid bondo.

[69chevytrucker]

you can see the diff left to right

[69chevytrucker]

and this is what i got done today hope you all like
