I don't think anybody is ignoring your request. You got over 100 views on your first post. But I think you're seeing how rare stock frames are becoming. In the meantime, tell us how bad the one you already have is. Is your customer aware of the issue, and are you both hitting the nationwide craigslist, etc.? Can the original frame be repaired?

 

I gave it to a friend because it had a 4 link kit that i didn't like and a disc brake kit i didn't like so i wanted to start off fresh and install the suspension kits that my shop has to offer for a display. I know now how hard it is to locate one. DANG

 

You may very well be forced to find a cheap rusty old resto-mod from 20 or 30 years ago, and just go from there. USUALLY, they just hacked out the original transmission crossmember and motor mounts and kept most everything else the same. Plus it sounds like you're gonna modify it further anyway. Unmolested stock frames are very hard to find nowadays. The biggest area of concern with regards to a stock frame, in my opinion, is the thin crossmember in the rear under the bed. The lower part tends to rot where it attaches to the lower part of the frame rail. But like I said, you probably need to look for a failed (or old) resto-mod with a rotten body, and just pay the difference to get the frame.

 

Im at the point where i make it from scratch.

 

I have a 52 F2 stock frame. It's a bit longer and has different bolt pattern and rear end. However, I have all of the F1 (correct suspension parts) to go with the F2 frame. You'll need to shorten the frame if you're up for the challenge.
