My new CMP -Help

[Stony Smith]

I’m totally stoked to get one of these, I was unsure at the time which one it was, and unfortunately the owner removed the tags then miss placed them (his brother is looking for them) are there any numbers on the chassis? but I was able to tell that it was a FAT (not sure if that is a Ford only expression and the Chevy was a CGT?) as you can see the back was cut off and somebody had installed a hydraulic leavers in it at one time. It still has the convoy lights as well; underneath the fenders and frame you can still find the green paint, not sure about the yellow though. I originally wanted a radio or a signal van, and I feel bad converting this into something else that what it was. I build hot rods and do a lot of fabrication, check out the other stuff we do at oddballkustoms.com, Does someone have plans for the FAT, Radio, or Signal bodies I was looking for a kick but shop truck and this came my way. The engine is junk I have no interest in rebuilding it and will probably go diesel (4BT) but the big question that I need to solve so I can plan accordingly is axle ratios…. Are others available? if so what’s the lowest. I really love the look of these axles and want to keep them, but I need to rip up the highway as well! Thanks for any and all help, I realize I’m asking a bunch of people who restore these things rather than Hot Rod them, but please have mercy on my wackiness –I promise it’ll be cool!

I'm located in Ontario just North of Ajax.
