 Just to let you know that i'm still on this project but have been real busy so not had time for my own stuff, On the upside although i didn't get the rolling frame done for the swapmeet i did take the body, got some really positive comments on the quality and took 2 deposits for bodies, we are now in profit just 
 
 Found a few spare hours yesterday so welded the various chassis bits back together as the original owner had cut it into several pieces to make it easier to store I've kept the original front crossmember as its a nice looking piece, someone had been at it with a gas axe so there were a few holes to repair.
 Once the frame was back together i noticed the front fixed shackle brackets were missing so had to make a pair, made them a little longer to get some lift on the front, I'm reusing the front shackles as they are nice pieces.
 
 The FX3 was originally 112" wheelbase so 10" of the frame has been removed to bring it down to 102"
 
 
  
 
  
 
  
 
 
 
 
 Here's the frame so far, It needed a lot of welding as the cuts wern't that neat, strong now though. Next job is to fit rear crossmember.
 I'm going to get the front axle and rear axle in and then hopefully the engine.
