Re: 51 Chevy 1/2 ton, My S10 swap

yeah great saying. it will all come together for you. You'll figure it out, you'll end up cutting some off the rear of the frame and the front. Other than that just get the cab on, set your height, put the front fenders on put the bed on and get the wheels lined up, then fab your cab mounts and mount the cab, then get the engine and trans in there and you'll have to relocate engine location and probably have to make or modify a new trans xmeber. all in all s10 swap is not hard and I have two other frames lined up (not to rub it in) but it is just very logical to go that route, just like a sbc, just simple and effective.
