I see nice arid country Frames go thru our local Pick-n-Pull recycle yard on occasion.
It's too bad you aren't closer to California to pick up a clean cancer-free chassis.
Shipping to Colorado might be a deal breaker.
You might try placing an ad on Facebook or Craigslist.

I got lucky and found a chassis 120-miles from home when building up my '77 F350 Crew Cab pickup.
I had planned on just stretching the frame on the short-bed Crew F250 Cab-Donor pickup, then STUMBLED across the F350 chassis by Luck.

Let us know what you do find, and where it was sourced.
