So I'm putting a 94 yj on a 79 f150 frame powered by a straight 6. I have the frame cut done and the body mostly fit. It is actually going a lot better than I thought if should be a good dd/beater when I'm done

This build sounds rather interesting, do you have any pictures that you can upload of the process?

It would almost be done by now but I blew the motor in my 06 f150 so I have to fix that first.
