I have a 1953 chev 1 ton flat deck.

I would like to mount the cab on a newer chassis, to make the vehicle highway capable and safe, and then add a correct pick up box.

Any suggestions on a chassis I could look for that wouldn't need major modifications?

If you have any ideas, please email me with suggestions.

Thanks.

How are you going to use the truck? If you intend to keep the 1-ton load rating the answer is probably different than if you are looking to create a short-box 1/2-ton.

Does you 1-ton have dual wheels in the rear?

It's true. I really don't do anything but browse the Internet looking for trouble...
