Drag Car/Road Race Budget Build

[db14dcs]

Me and a buddy bought a rolling frame for $200 that we are going to turn into a drag/road race car similar to the ugly truckling that was on Roadkill.
My buddy has a 89 ford bronco that has a 351W that the frame is bent on, so we are going to throw that and a C6 transmission into the frame and have some fun. (I know Ford in a GM shouldn't happen but its a free motor and transmission)


I am almost positive it is a GM frame based off the 9 digit number on the frame.
Is there anyone that can help me determine exactly what the frame came from and what year based of the picture attached? Or a breakdown of what each alphanumeric means?

Probably have better luck with a pic of the whole frame...

Before we cut the cage off (it was rough)

Road and drag race are 2 completely different animals. You can have one or the other, but one side will always fall short. Remember the F-bomb? https://www.hotrod.com/articles/hrdp-0704-1973-chevrolet-camaro-paint-body/

We are not looking for it to be great at anything. We are just putting it together to have some fun on the weekends however possible.

I'd say that frame started life under a Cutlass with the "3" being for Olds.

Pagrunt thanks, that is what I figured also from everything that I have seen. I'm really looking to see if it possible to figure out what year the frame is from.

Shouldve left the cage on it and skinned out an old chevelle or something http://www.corner-carvers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=46268&page=14
