Your not wasting any time are you.

daverod · 03-05-2011, 10:03 PM

I'm good at taking things apart.

daverod · 03-07-2011, 04:35 PM

Got a S10 frame, 118" with front running gear and a title. $100.

Got the passanger side floor done.

sweet70beast · 03-09-2011, 01:18 AM

Where's the yard at?

daverod · 03-09-2011, 01:30 AM

Poky Waynes. No 292's

Strodder · 03-09-2011, 11:55 AM

Are you running a 6 cylinder or a V-8? You might get better gas mileage with the V-8. Long time ago my friend had a 61 Belair with a 6, and I had a 58 Chevy convert with a 283. I got better gas mileage than he did.

daverod · 03-09-2011, 04:29 PM

I'm going with a 8 or a newer 6 maybe a 4.3. No inline stuff I aready have that.

I really want a LS but I don't think I'm smart enough. yet.

ruffrida2005 · 03-09-2011, 07:06 PM

Dave you can come pick up a extra s10 rear end that I got. It's in East Texas.

sweet70beast · 03-09-2011, 08:18 PM

Where exactly is Wayne's? And how are the prices?

daverod · 03-09-2011, 08:32 PM

It's on the old hiway going to simplots just past pacific recycling. Prices seems good frame was 100. I saw a inline on craigs 235 out of a car 150.

daverod · 03-11-2011, 12:36 AM

Cut out some more cancer.

I should have been a doctor. Welded in one patch. Did get a auto darkening helmet, what a difference. Should have done that long ago. Maybe one of days I'll get some gas. Back was sore from boarding did'nt get much done. I should get the rest done by this weekend. Got a cab corner coming. Checked out some 4.3's. Don't know if I really need a posi or not. Thinking a zr2 but the posi one is 600 non posi 325.

bubba327 · 03-11-2011, 12:55 AM

Auto darkening helmets are the bomb. I like the adjustable lens feature also. Wish it was available in magnifying style for us old dogs.

I was having a heck of a time seeing while welding in the cold last week, Until I realized my breath was fogging up the lens when I dropped the hood.

nickp51chevy · 03-11-2011, 01:44 AM

Nice build so far. Can't wait to see more.

RootBeer 6117 · 03-11-2011, 07:53 AM

When I first got my truck I thought it had rust issues but after seeing what some of you guys have to replace I realised mine wasn't bad at all, I love the dent puller.
Joe

daverod · 03-11-2011, 09:58 AM

So much for not cutting my new s10 frame. Bagging the rear, putting on a 2 link with some notches.

ruffrida2005 · 03-11-2011, 06:33 PM

I want to see your s10 frame set up. So I know what to do to mine when I get to it. Heck you will probably have all 3 of your trucks done before my dime gets bagged.

daverod · 03-11-2011, 10:22 PM

I'm thinking about thishttps://www.ekstensive.com/store/product_info.php:
Can't pass up a sale. I need to go to Lowes again.

T Hilde · 03-12-2011, 02:31 AM

nice bumper

ruffrida2005 · 03-12-2011, 12:11 PM

That's how I'm thinking of building my lower bars. Except it will be a adjustable rodend on the axle. I already built my notch for it. And I'm using a offset wishbone that I'm gonna build.

troy54gmc · 03-12-2011, 04:46 PM

Nice rearend. and the parts arent bad looking either.

Strodder · 03-13-2011, 10:56 PM

Hey that's the door to my shop.

daverod · 03-14-2011, 12:35 AM

Alright it's your door, but she's mine.

Strodder · 03-14-2011, 10:27 PM

Did you see her front?

bubba327 · 03-14-2011, 11:18 PM

So -----there are two posters.... right ????... or is that a see through door???????
I dont want to know what the rubber straps and the jumper cables are for...

I have never seen those at Lowes before either.....

daverod · 03-14-2011, 11:30 PM

It's see though alright.

Got me a gas hook up for my welder coming and a bottle. Think I'll be doing a lot of welding on my frame.

Ordered a new bed front and 2 rear stake pockets. Took the bed apart. Finished the floors. Need some new bed strips,I'm thinking SS. Need some bed angle pieces that go along the bedside. Not sure how the old ones are going to come off. Still waiting on my frame. Priced a ZR2 posi in IF for 500. They wanted 650 here. Still not sure about the engine most likley 350/350. Seems the easest.
