Was really easy. Just cut it on the side of the frame on the outside. Do a few pie cuts on the inside and hit it with the grinding wheel. Took about 30 min.

Strodder · 04-11-2011, 09:03 PM

It 30 seconds with the plasma cutter.

daverod · 04-11-2011, 10:52 PM

one minute your all oh no you don't need a plasma then the next your all the plasma's the $hit.

Just messin. Did my other hole it only took about 15 min. Still need to figure out where to mount my engine. I bought the s10 v8 mounts but now I don't think I can use them.

Guys bringing me some s10 15" rims just so I can wheel it around. Just thinking about rear ends?

Hit ctrl,alt,delete at the same time the fuzzy part goes away.

Strodder · 04-12-2011, 12:05 AM

I didn't say Plasma Cutters are $hit. Just mine was when it blew up.

ruffrida2005 · 04-12-2011, 10:23 AM

I think I'll use the plasma since I cant turn my frame over like yours Dave.

And is that the dude from Gold Rush? My 2y/o was watching it with me and said Not Nice.

daverod · 04-12-2011, 01:37 PM

I was just thinking what a pain it would be if I was laying on my back.

Who says you can't tip it on its side. Whats a two year old know about whats nice. I thought it was verrry nice.

You need to educate that kid.

You know your in a good bar when it has chicken wire. Reminds me of my days in the Navy.

The good old days. When I did'nt have to work or worry about makin the house payment. When gas was a buck. 1980

ruffrida2005 · 04-12-2011, 10:59 PM

In 1980 I was still swimmin around looking for a out. But I do remember gas being less then a buck about 15 years ago.

Alan's Classic · 04-12-2011, 11:34 PM

If I ever get around to my 55, I will have to reread this and see how it's done.

daverod · 04-12-2011, 11:56 PM

I really have no idea.

I just post pictures and do what people tell me to do.

Where's my bags!!! Got some stock 15" rims today now I need some tires.

I have seen the pictures that You and Strodder post

daverod · 04-13-2011, 12:10 AM

I'm thinking about giving my parts washer an facelift.

Strodder · 04-13-2011, 03:46 PM

You perv, but that's what I like about you....

ruffrida2005 · 04-19-2011, 01:11 AM

you got that link system yet?

daverod · 04-19-2011, 11:21 PM

Gave up waiting for my bags thought I would put my cab on and do my radiator stuff.

When you use the s10 frame the radiator hits the gear box so you have to mod the bracket that holds it and use a different radiator. Not sure which radiator I'm going to use? Also had to trim my inner fenders to clear some stuff. Not sure if I cut them enough. I guess I'll find out when I get my bags on. Figured out stock s10 rim don't fit with my spindles for some reason. I guess I need more of an offset. Good enough for now they just don't go on all the way.

daverod · 04-20-2011, 08:38 PM

http://cgi.ebay.com/209612-19-X-22-A...-/110414176704

I found this radiator. Its the right size but it says engine oil cooler. Could this also be used as a trans'mission cooler?

ruffrida2005 · 04-20-2011, 10:14 PM

Yes you can.

That's how mine was hooked up in my 64.

daverod · 04-20-2011, 11:00 PM

That's good I was sick of looking.

Guess ill keep looking its got to be 22 by 19 not 19 by 22.Dumb as. Found this one 40 cheaper and it's 22x19.

ruffrida2005 · 04-20-2011, 11:03 PM

still no 2 link? I've been messing with mine. I got my bungs welded in and was taping out the threads.

daverod · 04-20-2011, 11:19 PM

ekstensive aka "brothers"

They said I could have it cheap not fast. I should have had my bags by now though. I guess they are going to ship it all together. Not as if I don't have stuff to work on. Need to get my engine so I can see how to mount it. I'm thinking I'll be cutting my floor boards. The Iron Duke.

Least it has a name, maybe someday it will have a thread.

ruffrida2005 · 04-21-2011, 01:27 PM

Iron Duke is the name of the motor 2.5L.

ruffrida2005 · 04-23-2011, 10:15 PM

nothing happen this weekend? I got a thread for the dime.

daverod · 04-24-2011, 10:19 AM

Weekend not over yet.

daverod · 04-24-2011, 11:20 PM

Filled a bunch of holes. Welded a bunch of cracks in my fenders. Stripped one front fender and painted it to look like the other old one. Turned out better than I hoped. Not done yet.

99 to Life · 04-25-2011, 08:12 PM

Love the trucks. all of them

daverod · 04-26-2011, 10:37 PM

Got my bags and cups. Have no idea what the brackets/otherthings are for?

Picked up a radiator. I'm thinkiing I'll need to get the outlet on the bottom rewelded to make it come out straight. Mounted my front cab mounts to my cab need to weld a piece of metal across the back suport before I can mount the rear one.

Gave the ok on getting my engine work done. Still need a trans. I have a 350 and a 400 but I'm thinking a 700 would get better gas milage. Maybe a 2 for one deal.
