    Not much has been going on with my build ..
    For some of you that want to know about swapping frames this sux.
    I'm putting a 1954 4-door frame under my 1949 body , and yes they are different, but not by much. mainly mounts body mounts need to be moved. And I think the body sits higher on the frame. which leads to other problem when trying to slamm this sucker. Frame hangs too low. almost 2 inches.. enuff of my rant.
    I"ll start w/ pics of it[​IMG]
