Has Anybody used a slick frame for something else?
I was wondering if anyone has ever used a slick frame for anything other than a slick.

Trailers of course!
I always thought it would be cool to make a farm work vehicle with no cab.. sort of an open air utility vehicle.. when my Dad raised pumpkins a few years ,I could see him using one with low racks or baskets around the vehicle to eliminate a lot of lifting.

Yeah,I built a Humvee on a long wheelbase 65' f100 frame. search here in truck talk theres a thread on it. The wheel base is almost the same as a stock Humvee. I also converted it to 4x4 .

Check it out Doc. It may be a good possibility for your wrecked Slick.

I was thinking more along the lines of a home built wooden van body or coupe body, maybe with enough flat top surface to install a few KW of solar panels for when I convert the drive train to electric.
