i have and 80s s-10 long bed frame.was wondering how hard you all think it would be to just use that and mount the cab and bed to it?once it was shortened! any and all feed back will help? thanks guys!!
I've seen some posts about this and I believe a very long thread on how to do it. Try using th search function and typing in something along the lines of Advanced Design frame swap, hope that helps.

Read my signature line. Call my 16 year old. Clark's thread is great, go to the Tech side AND do a search.
Just saw you were in Flint. PM me and I'll give you details, pictures, or you can see the real thing. Oh, and if it is a long bed DON'T shorten the frame! It is already set where you want it! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=137385 My kid's 54 on an S10 with 327 5 speed. Made his first burn out this weekend.
