Question Frame - Worth saving?

Finally starting the resto/mod on my 67 this year and I'm about to pull the truck into the garage to start pulling things apart.

The frame has been hacked quite a bit and was wondering if it's worth saving. I don't plan on using it in my resto/mod but wondering if it would be useful to someone else.

If it's not worth saving, I plan on using it as the base for my cab restoration rotiesserie.

What do you guys think?

Re: Frame - Worth saving?

Pictures really can't do justice when determining the detailed deterioration of structural frames and such, but it sounds like you aren't even going to use it for your resto,.........sooooooo......sure it should work for a rotissier!

It's probably in better shape than the one on my truck.

Just to add a little more detail but the frame has been cut and welded back in multiple places so far from original.
