OK gang here's something I've been thinking about.
I have a 1974 Ramcharger with not title. How much of a PITA would it be to place an A100 body on that chassie?
Right now I'm going to put my 72 cab on it it so I can put it to use.
Later,
Paul
How would this work.

i would think due to the relation of the engine to frame location, if you tryed to center the wheels, the engine would be too far back on the ram frame for the a body to work. just my thoughts...

Paul, Take a good set of measurements , both before & after you take both cabs off , as the A has no out side hood & cab sets forword , & just the opposite on the RC body , let us know how you come out

but, if you moved the engine rear ward in the frame rails, and played with it a bit you could have a 4x4 mid engine a100 that would be a beast in the trails due to almost perfectly even wieght distribution.

guys, do like i did, take out the 318, install a 440/727 with ramcharger transfer case. build a crossmember, install the axles to the stock van springs. 4" lift in rear to level things out, cut the shafts to fit, and over the river and thru the woods you go.
this is the 2nd one i've built,this one in '88 and still havin fun with it.
