You are probably more likely to get a response if you specify what state you are in.  Frames generally cost less than shipping though I did luck out once seeing a frame for sale and the same day seeing someone coming back to MN from AZ with an empty trailer.

Is Ranchero frame the same as a Custom Frame, since the same short wheelbase?  I have a frame here from a 57 Custom 300. Front suspension is on it. Rear axle is gone, IDR if springs are on it. I have it on blocks and use it for storing various rear axles outside.

Ranchero and wagons are the same.  The rear cross members from the axle hump back are different.  A person with reasonable skills should be able to make the adjustments to facilitate a fit.
