Re: S10 Frame Swap on 47-53 - Would you do it again?
There is a big difference in a builder like Joedoe who buys a running driving donor and then uses everything that is possible to use off that donor and builds his own mounts than the guy who does it because he is convinced that is what you do to be on of the cool guys, buys a kit that cost more than the suspension he said was too expensive and scraps a perfect 3100 short bed frame because it is "obsolete"
I still vote for building the best truck you can for the $$ you have to spend and consider all the options but don't get caught up in something simply because you think that is what the cool guys are doing.

77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
