Re: My version of the s10 swap
I keep plugging away, crossing things off the list and adding other things to the list....
Saturday I drove the truck a bit. Wife wanted me to get some mulch, so perfect chance to take the truck on a Home Depot run...after I put the seatbelts in for the twins! On the way home we were flagged down by a guy in a T-bucket who wanted us to attend a small diner cruise-in type show....so we did. ![]() ![]() Tonight I had a friend of a friend vacuum down and charge the A/C. Man will this be nice once it has side windows to keep the cool air in! Until then, it blows cool air on my knees. That probably needs to be about next on the list, side glass.

Re: My version of the s10 swap
Made it!!!
In New Orleans, doing some sightseeing before the start of HRPT 2016. ![]() ![]() Here's our crew. ![]() Bourbon Street tonight ![]() Mmmm, taste of New Orleans. ![]() Some other random pics ![]() ![]() ![]() Truck ran great for 16ish hour drive down here. A/C isn't charged enough and the Vintage Air heater control valve is leaking coolant on the passenger floor but other than that no issues!

Re: My version of the s10 swap
Been using the truck for hauling duties of late. I moved this summer and I've been working on the shop space. Plenty of drywall being moved with the truck in recent weeks!

Re: My version of the s10 swap
Going on HRPT in the truck you just finished (ok, they are never really finished) has to be a very exciting time. Looks like you all are having fun!

Re: My version of the s10 swap
Your build turned out great man. Lots of long hours and sweating it out really paid off.

Re: My version of the s10 swap
Thanks! Have been driving it pretty regularly, 3700 miles on it as of last weekend. Some squeaks and rattles to attend to.....but that can be handled later.

Re: My version of the s10 swap
Thanks guys, wouldn't think of doing the trip without my helpers! It's a blast, and we've had some really good conversations.
Helped out the Laid-Back guys with my funnel and hand cleaner at a gas stop. Earned the stickers they gave us a couple days ago! ![]()
