Hey everyone, very new to the site and had a question and could use some ideas. I have a 1949 4400 stake body that chassis is in bad shape, but cab is workable. I temp set the cab on a 1983 chevy 3/4 ton 4x4 rolling chassis/350 and it looks pretty good, but fabricating cab mounts to fit the 83's 'curved chassis' (instead of the 49's straight chassis) could get interesting, but do-able. Is there another chassis that I may want to look at that would fit a little better? (example. 4x4 straight chassis? c-40,50,60 chevys?, maybe a newer style chassis?) my ideas right now are for something 4x4 'or' maybe even going back to a 1.5 ton or larger. just looking for ideas guys, and pics would be great too! thanks
