    Second thread but never got my question answered. I dont know if my body is a standard or master. I have no front sheet metal or a frame . My question is can i make it accept standard sheet metal cause dont like the long look by using a standard frame? Is the cowel different on standard and master? My cars dash has instruments in front ov driver and glove box on right. But dash was off of car so could have been from dif car. Thanks for any help.

    If it's a five window then it's a Master. You can use standard back fenders, but they don't quite fit the rear apron, but only early Chevy guys will notice. You can use standard front fenders. Just set up your frame for the shorter Standard wheel base of about 108 inches. You'll have to shorten your running boards. Since you are starting with a bare body, you can make it what you want.

    You will have to cheat on the hood also. Just run a hood top.
