Re: 53 ~ S-10 project (yup, another one)
truck looks great. Love the decision with the steering column. Looks real clean, wayyyy better than that s-10 wheel.
keep us posted

Re: 53 ~ S-10 project (yup, another one)
Thanks guys. I've got a 79 c-10 as my donor truck for the engine/trans. So, next up is to pull the engine/trans and take it to my buddy who builds race engines to freshen everything. The trans is a little sluggish on it. I haven't been in a hurry because I'm hoping to sell the 70 Mach 1 my brother and I built in about a week so I'll have more cash.

I scrapped the idea of the 79 C-10 donor, sold it and found a killer deal on a 85 Camaro  originally a 2.8 car that someone put a 350/700r4 in. Removed the engine/trans and did a little freshening up.  I'm using "backwards" S-10 v-8 mounts  So, the motor goes in for tacking the mounts in place and measuring where to cut for my trans tunnel. Then back out for final mounts welding and cutting the firewall

Re: 53 ~ S-10 project (yup, another one)
SLOWLY a little more progress.
Got brakes, PS lines, throttle cable, kick down cable, etc all hooked up. Just got too many other projects going on. I'll continue to work on it, but I also put a for sale ad in the trucks for sale section if anyone is interested.
