Do you have a car or a truck? Some guys us an S10 chassis but it doesn't always work out well, unless you know what you are doing and are willing to do lots of fab work. Best is to use an original frame and beef it up to suit your needs or buy an aftermarket chassis.

IMHO I’d do a crown Vic chassis. It’s a fleet vehicle with tons of aftermarket parts available and it’s a Ford
