anyone have any pics of any fenderless trucks on s-10 frames????
Yep, the one pictured above looks better than many, but how about a direct side shot of it? That's where i's very obvious that the proportions of the front end are all wrong. That and the ugly frame horns that stick out.
The one above with the horizontal style grille works better than most. Usually guys try to use a 30's style vertical grill and it just makes the proportions worse.
I have seen a picture of a 30's sedan on a home made frame with IFS instead of a straight axle pushed out where it needed to be. Looked OK.
Try to find some side shots of fenderless S-10 frame trucks - not 3/4 views, etc. , but full on side shots. You'll see the problem.
its all "opinions" and I dont listen to them, i got a 75 nova front end and i actually get compliments about it
NO rules to rat rodding

LDG, You have the front wheels up even with the radiator shell, like Sam said. Since I've seen your car many times I can attest that you did a nice job getting everything in the right place. The Nova front looks heavier and busier than a typical straight axle setup but yours doesn't detract from the overall good look you achieved building your car. So, in my opinion, you "follow the rule" of getting the front wheels in a good location. When I drove through Hugo today I thought about you, your brother and dad. Hope you had a nice Thanksgiving.
some pics of the ride...
