How hard is it to bag this?
How expensive will it be?
Whats the best way to bag this truck?

Its a 1976 ford F-250 with a 7.5L, long bed but over the summer I will cut the frame and turn it into a short bed.
Thanks

Droped I beams will not work if you want to lay frame.  what you need is a crown vic front end and the skillz to install it, you may have to Z the frame also to get it down in the weeds.  the rear is easy enough.... C notch the frame and install the rearend on top of the leafs insted of underneath them,  you can have the EYE reversed on the leaf spring also, this will get you another inch or so.

Good luck with you truck.

Aside from the Crown Vic front end, is there another doner front end to use?
