Truck is looking sweet. [cl
You need to tie the frame of the brake pedal back to the dash/steering column mount. There is a lot of pressure being put on that pedal and without bracing, it will cause problems on the firewall.

I know the feeling. Now with mine sitting closer to home, it is easy to get at it and spend some time with it. Seems slow going, but everyday when I leave there is progress made which makes me happy!!

Looks good.
Have you got tyre clearance at full steering lock?
I have the same truck and battled that area for a while...

tire
on mine l found a P195/R60/15 is perfect on a 7'' center set wheel.
on the rear chassis, are you going to run a cross member from just in front of the shock mounts? l know it's a S-1O chassis, but in mine l had some flex and the X-member helped a lot in stopping it.
it is looking good

tires
the BF Goodrich T/A's l had on the front(Which they no longer make) and the current ones on the front of my truck;
P195R6O-15's and 6 inch wheels center set.
remember mine has a 1977 nova sub-frame in it and you have the S-10 frame so it may sit different with that tire/wheel l have on mine . you may have to experiment with various tire sizes and wheel width and center set to get the right ''look''
