Hello, I'm Andy. Im a farmer in Kansas, and I've finally made up my mind to begin the restoration of a 1946 Chevrolet 1/2 ton pickup. I'm not sure which forum these type of questions belong in, but I'll ask away. My goal is to build this pickup brand new from the ground up. Is it cheaper to buy a brand new frame with brakes, rear end, front and rear suspension, engine and transmission mounting brackets, and body mounting brackets that will fit the pickup exactly for $10,000, or buy an s10 frame or something like that, modify it to fit the pickup, and gather the chassis pieces one at a time? This seems to be the most important question on my mind at this time.
