Greetings from The Bay State. Does anyone know the differences/similarities between an early 50s Dodge 3/4 ton pickup chassis and the same year COE truck chassis? If I had the Dodge COE cab only, would I need a COE specific chassis to put it on or would a non COE Dodge chassis work?
I put my '50 Ford COE on a 1972 International Travelall frame, torsion bar, power steering, power brakes. In 1976.. You can actually do ANYTHING that your capable. We are Hot Rodders.. Don't ask, Just Do... ( what the mind of man can conceive,, He can achieve.)
I understand what you are saying Verde and I agree with you. I am just trying to learn as much as I can before jumping in.
check out the COE group and do some reading.... it's all been done before. And welcome to the COE world! https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/social-forums/coes-cab-over-engine.283/
There is/was a B series COE chassis for sale just a bit north of me on FB. Trucking it from Ohio to you would probably be cost prohibitive.... but those chassis are out there.
I say dive in. The water is fine https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/social-forums/coes-cab-over-engine.283/ JML
