Well ,best of luck with that,,custom built frame means you have some $$ so,,personally I would think getting a stock frame then modifying it to suit your needs would be less expensive and practical as you have the body there to make sure everything lines up. But it's your build,,will keep an eye out on the progress

yea i figured put the money into a new frame b/c just peace of mind that the welds arent gonna break if i welded it up. i would hate to hit a bump and end up in someones kitchen. its gonna be the nicest part of the car. yes im planning on chopping 6-7" and channeling 3-4". i gotta figure it out b4 i do it cause im 6' 210lbs i dont wanna have to shoe horn into this thing. the frame wasnt too much money, 850 with motor mounts and im prolly getting a deal on shipping. ill keep everyone posted on the frame. when i get it ill snap some pictures.

Looks ok,But I would have never cut up a pefectly good coupe body to build a truck.

To each his own! I think it looks bitchin dude!! Cool ride, I like it! It takes balls to cut up a perfectly good coupe body and make a truck out of it! Drive it like you stole it!

this is what i started with....trust me not perfectly good coupe. no floors or rocker panels. i welded in ford patch panels cause they were cheaper.

 

[wickedkid]

after the patch panels welded in

oops

cut the cancer off

what was left

 

[rockb1]

wow you are right it wasnt too much to start with, but then I have seen worse. What did you do with the trunk?

 

[wickedkid]

i gave it to a fellow hot rod guy. i think he has it in his garage. i wish i had a garage to put it in!

 

[rockb1]

So are you going to use it? or what are your plans for teh rear of your rod?

 

[wickedkid]

mock up the rear to look like a 5window pick up. and fab up some sort of bed
