Hello
This is my first message here. Please forgive any mistakes.

I am building a 1935 Ford pick-up hotrod. It is in no way original, it's simply not what I am into. The truck I am building is a 1935 Ford pick-up, but a fiberglass reproduction with an extended cab. The cab is extended 15 inches. As I am building it from scratch I need a frame. For ease of building I am looking for a rolling frame. I.F.S. and 9 inch rear are essential. I can do 1 of 2 things: I can buy a stock style reproduction frame and stretch it 15 inches, or I can buy a frame from a builder that can make the frame I need. Either option is acceptable.

The internet is too big for me to reliably find a qualified frame builder. I am asking (begging?) for referrals to frame builders. The only requirement for location is that it be in the USA. I am in Minneapolis, MN. The closer the better, but shipping is always an option. Cost, though important, is second to quality and safety.

Any information you can give would be greatly appreciated.

thanks
Jon

Try going into this site, look around and e-mail this guy. He's building a 1930 hot rod and may be of some assistance.

Let us know if/when you find anything.

Jon, this is just a suggestion. I am not sure of the club name that puts on the Back to the Fifties car show, but those members would probably be one of your best sorces of information, and most likely the work you need accomplished would be in the Twin Cities area. Just some food for thought.

Dave Koorey Street Rods in Port Richey builds a stretched frame for early Fords. They also build stretched fibreglass cabs. You can get a rolling chassis with Mustang IFS polished arms disc brakes, all stainless brake lines and master cyl.Ford 9" with gears and disc for around $6000.
