    The plan is to use a CJ5 chassis with a flatfender body. I've got most of the major pieces but this will likely be a multi year project :)

    I am just finishing up on a simular swap - '68 frame and running gear (has a T98 as well) with a '49 3A body on it. Let me know if you have any questions. This is the second one I am doing myself, helped on a couple others.

    Warlock, What engine are you using in your hybrid? I didn't think it was possible to fit a 3A body over the F motor.

    I use V6s in all my builds - it's a 225 in that one.

    Will likely plow snow with it, not because I have to but because it's usually fun (power angle plow though). I've had two other flatfenders before, and a few CJ5's. '46 CJ2A, 231 odd-fire, T18, Warn OD, etc, etc.
