hi all, new to the board and im lovin it. i just bought a '50 chevy pickup project. i havent done a project this large before. the truck is complete, but in rough shape. im going to do a s10 frame swap (already have the truck) and have gotten a lot of info on the swap here. i am trying to get the truck on the road for under $1500 daily drivable in flat black. i have $500 in so far with the '50 and the s10 (which already has a 350 and 700r4) ive also already got a set of wheels and tires. what i am looking for at this point as i am just parts gathering at this point as i dont have a garage yet. i am trying to got fairly modern (power windows, shaved handles, HEAT, ect.) anyways... what i am looking for now is what should i keep from the s10 to recycle for the '50? anyone got any suggestions on where to get cheap stuff for the truck? i need fenders (mine are rotted out), radiator, floorboards. any help is appreciated. as soon as i start on it i will post some pics, im just waitin to find the right house to buy. -mike
Mike, we assume all FNG are full of shit unless they post pictures!!!! Welcome to the site. Best thing to do as far as the s-10 is concerned, is park it out back. You would be amazed at what you can rob off it, even if it is just bolts.
