Default Re: Newbie and What do I have?

If you go look at my albums and bio, it shows the plan. I do not plan on restoring per say. I have a 31 AA chassis that I want too put this body on to make a quad cab pickup as a daily driver.

Thats one reason why I bought this body (I know some of you thought I was crazy because of what condition its in). Its in pretty bad shape and thought that if I was doing something non original I would use a body that others would just cut up anyway. The plan is to stay as original as possible with a moore modern (1976) engine and trans, with hydraulic breaks. (So you still might think I'm crazy, but this is my dream truck and I'm doing it anyway)

Beofore youo judge too much look at this:

This was my plan and about 2 weeks after I got my chassis I found a guy on another forum that had done the same thing (his truck in the pic). At first I was dicouraged, as I thought I had an original idea, but then I was happy to see that my plan will work. The only cutting/fabrication he did was on the rear running boards and fenders. Looks like it was made that way in 31 doesn't it?
