    I'm building a model t roadster pickup using a touring front ****pit and a model a pickupbed. The drive train is going to be out of a 76 pinto (the bodys toast, but the engine runs great) 2.3 four banger with a ford 8 inch rear. My question is should i buy a model a ch***is and modify or beef up the model t frame that i have already or should i just build my own frame? (i do have a little welding and fab skills, i've worked as a airplane mech for the last few years) i'm just not experienced with rod building. so any input would be appreciated. Thanks Gregg

    New Rails are the easiest way (everyone has a friend who can weld if you cant) I personally like the challenge and bragging rights of makin the cool old **** look good and work. Totally your own call.....
