so i haven't been on here in years and miss not having a dually so i picked up a new project a few weeks ago im starting to collect parts for
the plan for the build is to find a chevy dually front frame and suspension weather it be a c30 or an obs front it doesn't really matter, its just which ever i find first . build a frame for the travelette and also use the 2 foot chunk of bed to stretch the bed to a long bed leingth and get some step side fenders to use as dually fenders .
drive train will be a 24v cummins and 5 speed out of my 99 ram 2500 and ill likely use the srw dana 80 ff out of it also . i haven't measured yet but i think its 70" wms-wms
anyway everyone likes pix so here are some pix of when i was bringing it home and ill post more in a sec of my other toy and the donor dodge

I love the old IH trucks, I have a scout 80 and have been drooling over the travelettes and travelall for a while now. You don't see as many of them bagged, it will be a great dually project.
Your other two builds look great too.

Definitely a cool project, keep the pics coming. Reminds me of a 1960's Travelall a friend of mine had forever. Haven't kept up with him but he had that thing way back in the 80's and probably still does.
