Yep, $800 and it comes with the stuck 327/3-spd. frame is super nice. I don't know why the frame is so good and the body was so bad. a little cleaning, some black paint and people will think it was NOS. pick it up in 15317, SW Pa. thanks, mike (the junkyard pirate) will trade for Heidts type ind frt suspension for 37 chevy..
where are all the Brave Frame Swappers? I once saw a 47 chevy put on this frame. fit like a glove. almost a bolt-in.
found out why frame looks so good, it's made outa ***anium! rumor is that it was made by GM to be used as a Mars Rover ch***is. when it was discovered that Mars had no atmosphere and a gas powered engine wouldn't work , the frame was added to the ***embly line and ended up on this 2-dr hdtp BelAire. no lowballers!
I have received a letter from General Motors asking if I would be willing to donate this frame for their up coming anniversary celebration. they wanted to chrome plate it and mount a 409 in the engine bay. i said my friends on the HAMB have first shot at it and if no one speaks up its theirs, but I get it back when its over. price will be going up
since no HAMBer has stepped up, GM got it. they came with a smaller version of the Futureliner and winched it in. they showed me a picture of the 409, it's all Chrome!! they said they would be chroming the ch***is but wern't sure how well the chrome would stick to ***anium. I told them if they ****ed this up, they would be buyin the frame, $800 cash.
they said the chrome process failed. now they are glueing aluminum foil to it. guy said, "from a distance it looks real good"
