Re: S10 Frame Swap Blueprints

We forget that there are guys who want to do things on their trucks that don't have one clue on how to do simple things that most of us take for granted and jump at the chance to buy blueprints or plans or books to do said changes and modifications.

Some people have no search skills, no visualization skills and limited mechanical experience and they are probably the ones who buy those things the most.

Just think if Jeff had decided to put his whole build with drawings on a power point presentation with blueprint style drawings and sell CD's or Downloads of it he would probably be gathering in a few of those bucks.

mr48 put it well, i just start fabbing it to fit. when someone asks how i did it, i can't say exactly how...

rog540wag had the patience to put it all together and sell it. free enterprise at it's best.

i should do that to... nah, to busy being unemployed/retired

I agree , If I were thinking about doing the s10 swap I mght buy the drawings just to see what i am up against. it would save a lot of time measuring. Frame swaps can be a lot of work just measureing.

Re: S10 Frame Swap Blueprints

Hey guys, i have another truck that i am building at the present time. I have plans to post a few pictures sometime soon. I have made it a 2 year project now that i am back to full time shift work. I have been on it about 6 months and i fill way ahead of schedule. I appreciate all of you who can realise the effort it takes to refine such a task. I have made a couple changes after building the seafoam green 1948 truck. Most of that just being height and width changes just to get a little different look. I think this truck will be a little more capable of serious power driving with a hopped up LS2 with 550 street legal drive anywhere horsepower. I will try to post a few pics of the project sometime soon. I just finished fitting all the sheet metal and about ready for another last time disasemble and paint........whewww.
