i am planning in looking into buying a 1983 Chevrolet S10 to use for my 1953
S10 swap............my wheelbase of my 1953 GMC is 124".....the wheelbase of the S10 i am looking at is a regular cab short box.....i know this means i will need to cut my bed down some to make it work but that will be no problem.....will this option be worth it?

the owner made me a great offer.......is it an offer worth taking though?

i had wanted to grab a V6 5 speed manual......this truck is a V6 automatic...will this cause any un-noticed problems???

Quick reply would be most appreciated!!
