    was wondering if i can swap my cab and front clip off of a 65 chevy and place it on a short bed 60 gmc frame. will i need to do lots of modifications or does it transfer without much hassle.
    any info would be great thank you

    I have both 65 Chevy and 60 GMC short box pickups and the frames are different. I the frame on the 60 GMC is wider than the 65 Chevy. It could probably be done but new cab mounts would need to be made and you would need the bed cross sills for the GMC.
