I have a leftover engineless Moebius '66 F100 kit from a project (in this case, retrofitting a 240cid six into a F100 4x4) and I'm thinking I'd like to kitbash a medium duty truck.
In this case, a '66 F700. The bodywork seems straightforward enough. Wheels, tyres, no problem aftermarket.
Should I scratchbuild a chassis (e.g. rails/xmembers), and if so, how? I looked through Evergreen and Plastruct and neither seemed to have suitable channel (approx 9.5x3").
It will need a front beam, 2-speed Eaton axle and some suitable spring packs, anything in the aftermarket that anyone would recommend? I considered buying a C600 as a general parts donor but the detail seems pretty representative, at best.
I'm unsure as to which engine yet, but I do have a 352 available. I can live with the Custom Cab interior (e.g. sweep instruments) for this job.
