Re: 1949 Chevy with S10 swap. Beginner build with ambition!

Went on vacation to St Thomas, so I wasn't able to work on the truck. Tonight I got a cab roller built and set under the cab. I also ordered some parts to refurbish the gauges and fix the one passenger panel with a patch. PA law requires no holes that allow exhaust to enter the cab, so I know I have to deal with this stuff before I'm road worthy. I'm also going to be in a holding pattern for the next couple of months because I need the other side of the garage to dismantle the S10 and the boss says no until the winter is behind us.



So, while the S10 is still together, I put her to work and got some firewood Also replaced the driveshaft carrier bearing just to sort out some vibrations.



Nerdy Parts list:
5" rollers from harbor freight. 2x4s in a square just wide enough to pass the legs of the 2T harbor freight lift arms. 48"x48".
