Thanks guys, appreciate it! Hmm, good idea, I'll have to look into the trans xmember like you said. I don't really want to use stock suspension stuff, I feel like it'll make the truck too high. I'm scared of heights...:p Here is my daily driver WRX that I was forced to raise a few inches due...

Haha I like the way both of you think! So.... It's in!! Didn't give us too hard of a time. Going to have to get new suspension because these lowering springs cannot handle the weight, truck is just sitting on the bumpstops:eek: Next order of business is to drill new holes in the frame so I...

Got a few friends I can count on, they'll be here shortly Going back to school on Monday... I just wanna work on this damn thing! Im studying surgical technology, this is my second semester. On Tuesday they're sticking my greasy ass in the operating room to begin my internship assisting...

You ask for a picture, you get a picture Flex plate is on Just rolled the truck in the garage and got a few people that say they'll be over to help drop the motor in (They said that last time too and bailed), so if they show, the motor should be in by the end of the night! If any of you fellas...

Well, you got me there Another little update, got the new motor and tranny in the garage (they were in the barn down the road before). Got my frame mounts bolted in, and realized I need a flex plate for motor to trans, so when the parts store opens up tomorrow I will grab one of them...

Damn! I'm glad it sounds like this rear will last for a while, I can't wait to drive this stupid thing. Got a ways to go Haha good idea! Take the money and run

Agree'd glad you're still here and still modifying! Great build thus far, keep it going![P

Yeah I dont see why not with out actually looking at it! Why? Got something in mind?

I'm fine if it takes a while to blow up the current diff, that'll just give me more thinking time on how to do a dually. In my head even having the inside tires as wide as the cab and the outside poking out a lot sounds badass to me! The only thing that I've been thinking may not go so well is...

I don't have the full kit, just bought a B8/S10 motor mount kit and can use the oem trans crossmember. For headers it's just going to dump behind my front tires which my buddy will fab something up for me. So onto the next step (in my mind I like to think many steps ahead) I am just going to...

Haha thanks man, if I've got time tomorrow I will shovel the truck out of it's poor snow den and pull it into the garage to get going on getting the motor in

Small update, but no pictures This weekend I am going to try to get the motor and tranny into the truck, just grabbed all new bolts today and using the same trans crossmember that came from the factory. Hopefully in a few days I'll have some pictures to update you guys with and maybe a...

This truck is awesome!! Great job on it How hard was it to rebody the '48 body onto the s10 frame? When I get sick of my chop top original cab this is what I may want to do down the road

Pulled the tranny out today, it's now time to put the new motor and tranny in!

It's been a while fellas!! No place to wrench and currently very motivated on a different hobby. But my buddy has got an old mercedes (pictured below) which we dropped on the ground and has got an LT1 in it, he just pulled it out today and sent me a video of it running. Which really motivated...

I've been considering a dually rear end on this truck, if you or anyone else has suggestions on how to do so please let me know!!

Absolutely love this!! just skimmed through the whole build, very envious of the outcome and your skills!

Thanks for the kind words everyone!! @Jotts make a build thread! Myself and I'm sure others are interested to see what you've got! @Sarge looks good, good luck with cutting the windshield!! @torchie I'm having fun, it's a great learning curve for me and a change from just dumping everything I...

Hahaha you're on there huh? Are you the one that referred me to this site? No they were/are ruthless but im going to keep posting on there to hurt their feelings Thanks for all the info guys, when I get another windshield I'll refer back to these posts and hopefully nail it on the first try

I love these!! Looking forward to what you do with it!
