Hello, This is improper and off topic even though it is Mopar so if you respond PLEASE respond directly to me and not on this board. I have a 49 Dodge 1/2 Ton Pickup that currently has Ford running gear. It MUST get swapped to Mopar. I have looked at several options however what is most appealing is to swap the body and bed to a newer frame. This is a truck my wife has claimed as hers and she wants it a 4X4 if possible. I am going to start looking for a downer truck such as a Dodge Dakota. Any thoughts or suggestions on what to do with the truck would be greatly appreciated - just send them directly to me.
