'63 Unibody
Has anyone ever tubbed a Unibody? I'm getting ready to start my project and I want to fit some big tires. I'm probably not going to alter the frame other than boxing it in. I've found a good deal on a narrowed 9" that I thing would work great.
Any advice for the best approach would be appreciated. Thanks

I just saw a 64? Unibody in either June or July edition of Street Trucks. It was tubbed. Pretty sweet truck. Had a blown 460. I have the magazine at the house, if your interested. Can scan in the article for you.

I have a 67 F100 that I just tubbed. I didnt go with "generic" tubs though. If you can find out when your local wrecking yard crushes out, go out the day before. I cut stock wells from a wrecked bed and welded them in. THIS LOOKS AWESOME!!! Everybody that sees it does a double take. I tell em its a factory option. Damn chevy guys fall for it too!! Good Luck!

I have built a few triangulated 4 link, coil-over setups for the early ford trucks. they handle good on the street and have held up well behind a 750hp supercharged big block. E-mail me at leed@tir.com and I will scan some pics of the setup to give you some ideas. Once you get the leaf springs and wheel wells out of the way there is a lot of room for tires.
