I posted on the last forumn about a friends 41 WC Closed Cab pickup.
Custom frame from 1/4" x 8" x 6" rectangular tubing cut into 3" x 8" C sections. All crossmembers bolted, not welded, for flex. 6-lug early 1960's Dana 60 axles front and rear with 4.89 gears. 440 and 727. I believe an NP 205 transfer case. All sheetmetal stock.
The bottom of the door window is to my nose, and this is on shop tires. Not sure what huge meats will go on it, but they will be large, probably in the 42" to 44" range.
My friend is a professional welder/fabricator, and this frame is very well made. I'm taking photos of it, and we'll post it when finished.
BTW, he also has a stock running 41 WC Closed Cab Pickup and a 41 Command Car undergoing restoration.
