I like the idea of a frame swap. Friend of mine has a '57 Vette on a new front and rear clip from a C5 with all the accouterments of the later model. Sits well, drives well and has a ton of performance right down to good A/C.
I have thought of putting my series Chevy PU on a 2000> frame. I don't know the adaptability though. Using a much older and iconic body style makes a hell of a lot more sense.
Yeah, get an issue of Drive magazine and check out the 100's of ads. Or go to the Father's Day deal at Pomona. Every vendor in the world is there.
