Details:
- 1955 3100 First-Series Pickup-Truck frame
    - Similar to 1947 thru 1954 truck frames
- Frame is straight and true (no damage/bends known)
- No front-axle (I pulled in anticipation of installing a MII IFS)
- Installed a 1977 Trans-Am Posi rear-end
    - Completely new rear drums
    - 10-bolt, 4-3/4" 5-lug
    - New rear brake lines
    - May need new front pinion-seal
- Installed new Heidts 4-bar rear suspension
    - Adjustable coil-overs
    - Adjustable shocks
    - Panhard bar
- Will not include (6) running-board mounts
    - I'll be removing them
- Includes HEAVY (3/8"?) rear-bumper from original owner (bolted-onto frame)
 
Truck was originally a Utah-desert vehicle (only sheetmetal had any real rust when I got it).
I completely sandblasted frame and painted in 2004 with POR15 epoxy-paint
- acid-washed frame, Metal-Ready rust-inhibitor
- frame has been garage-kept since 2004
- there has been no rust anywhere, even 8-years later
The only reason I'm selling is because new engine is >500HP, >600ft-lb and I'm purchasing a fabricated frame
 
I welded a 1-7/8" trailer-hitch to the front crossmember, plus installed trailer lights and wiring so that I could tow
this frame when I moved several years ago.   It trailered just fine and should work well for you to move
wherever; I'll even throw-in the wheels/tires in the pictures!
 
I've got over $3000 in just the rear-end additional-parts (not including the frame)
