tri 5 frames

Does anyone know of any sites that I can find prints or dimensions to build a stock frame for a 55-59 chevy swb pickup? I have located a entire 55 that is currently on a badly chopped up blazer frame and would like to bring it back to 2 wd.

Pewy397, I have a stock Texas frame, unchopped that you're welcome to. I'd kinda like to hang onto the straight axle, but that's not a biggie, I have another. I'm swapping my '55 onto a '71 trailing arm chassis and have no need for this one. If you don't want it or it's too far to chase down, anyone local that wants it can have it as well.

The dimensions of the fame are in the 55-59 Factory Assembly Manual. They sell for about $30.00 most places.
My 2 cents worth... rico_bob
