want to sell your old frame?
Wow! looking real good. If you have no plans for your old frame, check out this guy's recent post https://talk.classicparts.com/showthread.php?t=18055
He does not say where he is located, but does give his email address. if he is close to you, maybe you have a buyer for your old frame. Good luck -

I was checking out your thread....its great, brings back lots of memories.
About the Stainless side pieces in the bed.....I bought a stainless endcap from a guy on ebay. It covers the end of the strips and is "L" shaped. Gives a finished look too. Hides the dimple in the center strips. Was reasonably priced from a guy named "Big Bucks".
It would prolly cover that 3/4" gap except where the bolt is on the bedwall.

So fine!
I see the old 6 is still hanging around as well as what looks to be another nice red/orange V8? I am impressed with your talent!

overheating
Hey, haven't Been on here much lately.. Was looking for some advice on cooling systems. Last summer during July-August my truck was running 210-225 with the a/c on. Without the a/c on it was running about 200. I have a 3 row aluminum champion radiator, core size 20.75x19.5x2.5. becool electronic puller fan 16" with 3140 cfm. An edelbroch high flow water pump. 160 thermostat. 160 fan switch. Was wondering if there is a better radiator or something, maybe one made of copper? Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks Jesse.
