Mebbe even clip it, and put a late model independent front end under it. Lots of guys use mid 70s camaro/firebird subframes, grafted to the original cut and stubbed truck framerails, but if i had to hazard a guess from the last dodge truck project i had a hand in, we put a 79 115" wheelbase dodge truck 2WD frame under a 1963 dodge town panel truck body. It was pretty close to a bolt in, and gave a more modern independent front suspension, front sway bar, power steering, and disc brakes, all mopar. It lined up perfectly at the back carriage bolts to frame. The cab mounts we removed from the 63 frame and welded em to the 79 frame. We used 2x4s on the frame under the cab to get the spacing needed, once the mounts were in and bolted up,.we knocked the wood back out. Steve lovesbdriving his 63 townie with the modern mechanicals under it now.
