another S10 frame swap - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

JDeereGn · 08-20-2014, 10:53 PM

I am new to this forum and about to begin a build of a 1953 five window on an '84 S10 frame. I finished removing all the stuff from the S10 frame today. I am a fair welder/fabricator but I need help on the measurements and dimensions. I am not one to try to re invent the wheel. From what I have seen there is tons of info on here about this project. I would appreciate all the information I can get especially drawings or measurements Thank ralph

Thanks Jim

Haven't had time to look at all you sent but I certainly will. It appears this is just what I was looking for.

SKYMANGS certainly went to a lot of trouble to post this stuff. I am sure others have studied it to death as will I.

I am 70 yrs old. Wife says I have to finish her truck before I check out so I better get started. Her '86 CJ with AMC 401 and AX15 took over a year. From what I see this '53 will take much longer.

Thanks again to you and SKYMANGS
