Progress she moves under her own power, only moved back and forth in and out of the garage but yes it moves.

Fenders and bed are mounted finishing up some odds and ends, A/C and interior items.

Re: 47 1-Ton to S10 build
What size tires are on your rear rims, and what offset are they?

The truck looks great.

Don't recall the offset but they are 225/40/18 up front and 245/45/18 in the rear. You can probably go with a slightly taller tire, I didn't won't anything to rub.

Awesome looking ride. The Flat and gunmetal are the two colors I'm going with. Not many colors cooler than the semi flat black look.

Re: 47 1-Ton to S10 build
My list is finally short, I need to weld in shock mounts, install back window and get a front end alignment, align doors and that's it. Still haven't driven it yet hopefully I'll get it registered next week.

Looks AWESOME. Love the flat paint. My son was drooling, almost re-considered the patina look on his project!
