new body and new look

I am gonna buy randy's 81 bronco from him. This will give me the t18 4 speed that I have been wanting and a nice clean (some rust not much) body. I plan to set the 81 body on my frame. Now for the big question. Would it be simple to just use the title from the 81? That way the vin would match the title. I would then just haul in the old 88 body and the the 81 frame to the srap yard to recoupe some of my money. I really don't want to get the authorities involved as the truck is already so heavly modded lol.

I think thats the way I would do it. The vin on the body seems to be the only one thay ever check anymore so I dont think it would be an issue. Hope it all goes well and I like that front end a little better anyway just my 2 cents.

Hey Buck, will you be needing to drill any in the frame? My brother has a magnet mount drill press if you need to borrow it.

why is Randy wanting to get rid of it. Was there just too much involved in getting it running? I thought by the way you two talked he was salivating at getting that Bronco.
