Building Chassis For Our 1967 Chevy C10 Rectangular Steel Tubing

<strong>The New Chasis</strong><br>1. We bought 80 feet of 2x4x1/8-inch rectangular steel tubing from our local supplier. Sixty feet would have done the job, but we bought extra just in case. We used an 11-inch-diameter chop saw to cut the tubing to length. Notice that the end of each piece has been beveled, so that when we butt two pieces together, the weld will fill in the gap for a stronger joint.
