I had a 79 camaro on my 40 coupe frame and 1/2 the tire stuck out past the fender ,, just dont look right . every body seems to be using the s-10 with no complaints .

Lots of aftermarket stuff to tweak an S10. And s10 frames usually go for less than a camero/nova sub-frame.

Back when Camaro/Nova stubs were all the rage, they used to narrow them. I remember a how-to in one of the car magazines.

this has a s10 front end, tires stay in the fenders good, just as easy to put in as a camaro

If you don't run fenders then wider is better in my book!
But the S-10 thing is usually the way too go for most applications.

it's going to go in my 61 ih scout if I don't change the body out then it will have fenders
I would check track widths on your scout vs s10 and camaro and see which one is going or fit better. I have a 61 f100 unibody and picked up a camaro subframe, s10s are too narrow for these trucks but hopefully you can use the s10. It will be easier to find and cheaper

Seeing as the S-10 track width is within an inch, that's going to be your best option.
