I scored a '39 chopped cab, hood,hood sides, grill shell,and a air bagged s10 chassis for 5 hundge.
I know the rat s10 combo is beat to death, but run what ya brung is the motto 'eh!
I had to figure out how to beat the ugly out of the s10 front frame, so dug threw some and found a tubular axle from an old gasser maybe.....my buddy has a '46 chevy project going and he needed some carbuerators...one swap later I got a drum to drum front end and a home made hair pin bat wing set for my axle, all the brakes and drag link will swap to my axle....sweet. thinking of a re-location of the front axle and using the s10 bags up front, or maybe quarter eliptical...and using the s10 rear suspension as is.....any ideas, pics of this type of build would be awesome. will post pics of the pile when I get it all in one place.
initial: 5 hunge
trade: 2 hunge for the cost of the carbs when I got them.
total: 7 hunge
needed:
2- 6 lug chevy artillery wheels
downflow radiator
'39 ford windshield frame
bed sides
