Put a 55 chevy truck cab on a 69-72 chevy truck frame should be a easy project? Let me know,i may start looking for a 55-57 chevy truck have a 70 chevy truck frame to work with.

Yes, I helped a buddy of mine do it. The only thing is that you have to build really tall body mounts or you have to raise your bed floor. It can be done though.

I would like to know if just the front cross member would work

i have a 58' that is on a 70' 3/4 frame that i purchased that way. seems to fit fine. kaycee the front crossmember is really to wide in my opinion but other folks will tell you it will work. making body mounts is really easy.

Oh, you're talking 2wd, ours was 4wd.

Has anyone seen someone use a mustang II frontend on that style frame?
