Help Choosing Donor

[jrdecat]

I've done a lot of searching and reading and haven't really come up with a good answer for my alleged project, so I was hoping that someone might have done this or seen this in the past and could provide some insight.

I want a '58 or '59 with modern abs disc brakes and 4x4. I've been looking into s10 frames and they seem to work great with 47-55, but not the 56 and up bodies. I don't care about mounting the bed, as I will be putting a flat bed on so that is no issue. I also don't mind cutting off the old cab mounts and fabbing up some new ones.

Any recommendations on a donor chassis? I was looking into the s10 hoping to use the 4.3 / auto combo, and since '89 and up had abs.

Thanks in advance.
