Frame swap under '49 Custom 8?

Posted by Tristar500 On 2024/8/28 10:38:13

Some of you are gonna hate me for this but I'm looking to set the "49 body on a late-model frame with power disk brakes, rack and pinion steering etc...

The "49 I acquired would be just too much time and money to bring it back to the original and I'd be hesitant to take it on a trip for fear of a breakdown and no replacement parts immediately available.

I'm looking for any info from someone who has already done one of these.
Perhaps an F-150 "Frame, Maybe a Crown Vic?

I really appreciate any help you can provide.
