I built a TC a few years ago. A fun project. I think I would save as much as possible from the old TT. I wouldn't keep the frame. I would buy a heavy duty flatbed goose neck frame. Building from that point you wouldn't have to worry about weight. I can say with that building experience, those engineers that design RVs do a lot of calculations to keep the weight down. I wanted quality and of coarse the weight went up with the quality. It turned out nice but extremely heavy.
Considering there is nothing wrong with the frame, it would be a waste of money not to use it. Also I don't have a pickup (2000 Excursion w/7.3l diesel) a goose neck would be useless to me. I know weight is a major issue and will be looking at all possible options to save as much weight as possible.
