Mike T - 1952 Chevy S10 swap

This truck came in for an S10 frame swap. It already has posie's super slide's front and rear, Camaro rear end, disk brakes, 5.3L vortec/700R4 combo. The owner wants to get it lower to the ground, and have the drivability of independent suspension. This build will retain the carb'd 5.3/700R4, the Camaro rear end, and the current wheel/tire combo. goal is to get it at about 6" off the ground (bottom of the front fender). I'll be using my frame swap setup, (cutting the above frame portion down about 1 3/4" from the last build). It will also get an under-dash AC, new aluminum speedway radiator, 2" drop springs/2" drop blocks, some new suspension components, and a new steering column (topped with a '54 Chevy car steering wheel). Should be a pretty slick looking truck!

Here's what it looked like when it arrived, along with the donor S10.
