A friend of mine and I are having a guessing game.

Anyone know?

I have no idea, but I will guess it is pre 1960 whatever it is. Maybe pre 1950 car, not truck.:_paranoid

I'm going to disagree with Eric and say it's a early 60's Chevy truck frame.

imma go with mid 50's truck frame also. its not an early 60's cause i have a 60 chevy pickup, my frame looks nothing like that. that frame has leafs on the back and the engine was a inline 6 cant tell if it had leafs up front too, so my guess early, mid 50's

Are there any #'s stamped on it anywhere that you can tell?

I can tell you it is not a 50's chevy truck frame. I have done lots of work on the 47-54 and 55-59 truck frames. I would think it is a Studebaker frame. The crossmember has mounts for a 6 cylinder and looks to have a spring pockets for a Studebaker, the few that I have worked on had small diameter springs. Most truck frames have pretty straight rails with very little elevation change in the side profile since they don't have a very low ride height.

We can all be sure it is not a Camaro.....:D

Ok apparently it is a 52 Dodge M37 Truck. Thanks for the guesses!
