LS1 Bagged 52 Chevy 3100 Build

[Bagged3100]

Hey everybody. I’m new to the forum but I have seen several of you guys builds. I figured I mise well post mine up here so that I could see what you all think and hear your compliments, complaints concerns and suggestions. Hopefully my build will help some people out with some how to or different ideas. My project is a 1952 Chevy 3100 that I am transplanting onto a s10 chassis with full air ride laying running board and powered by a ls1 and six speed transmission. So feel free to ask away.

But I found a 1952 Chevy 3100 for sale for $800 and it came with a clean title so I went down to check it out. I knew I was going to do the s 10 frame swap so I wasn’t too concerned with the frame or drive train. I just wanted to make sure the body was in decent shape. Which it was. Other than the usual problem areas like cab corners, rocker panels, and floor it was pretty solid other then the driver side rear fender. But I didn’t think it wasn’t anything I couldn’t handle. So we loaded the truck up and brought it home.
