My girlfriend has a 38 ford 1/2 ton pick up she is building, and the frame she is using has some serious issues. The might need to go as far as getting a new frame, and i was wondering what other frames she could use. I am assuming that the 1 ton is different, but does anyone have an interchange list for that particular frame?

I used a 1940 passenger car frame on my 38PU. It worked fine. Just a couple side body mounts that needed to be lopped off so the bed would slide on.

Passenger and pickup frames '37-'40 are all the same. Now all you've got to do is find one...
