Here's the dry fit, after quite a bit of material being removed from both donors.

Here's the blended chassis on the "surface plate" being welded (JB Welded that is) together.

I was going to use a bed from a recently released 1970 Dodge Ramp Truck, but they ended up being more of a Burnt Orange than red. 
 

But hold that thought and watch this space for more information on that project.

Done, and trying to figure out what to pose it with.

I don't have anything contemporary in a Dodge or Chrysler product, so it's going to be hauling vintage racers.

Excellent work, Man... That came out pretty darned good...

Thanks!

Sorry about the late reply, but the re-org of this Board is kinda confusing.

Done anything with the one I sent you?

Not yet, but I did acquire all the material I need to make a Mini 5 car hauler for it... After I finish my ALF fire engine, I'm going to turn to on that one!! Be watching for the thread... I'll probably be starting on it while awaiting paint to dry on the boom...
