Thanks everyone for the replies. My 30 chassis is really very intact. Even to the point that I have not ruled out an original restoration like I did my Model T's but I'm missing some engine parts and the tranny case is broken and I really want to build a Rod. Still debating with myself on that. Roger, what is meant by "boxing out the frame?" From what you guys are saying I think I would certainly stick with my present frame. Is it feasible to affix a later model front suspension and rear end to my 1930 frame? Thanks for all the help. Im gettin pumped up.
