well, i been lookin for somethin to get and keep my attention long enough to finish. I think i found it finally.
48 chevy
chevy 350/Th400 tranny
sitting on a s10 frame

not alot to really tell about it, pics show what it is.

plans:
bag it
get glass for it
drive the hell out of it

thats pretty much it...lol
i guess its gonna be somewhat of a ratrod style (not sure of true deffinition of a ratrod)

Engine looks good on that beast. With that frame it shouldn't be hard to bag it like some groceries. <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s:D -->

hey bro keep the truck on the out side the way you have it now except of coarse have all your lights work and thats a perfect rat rod. love the truck my wifes uncle just told me I can have his old merc for 800.00 so I have to go look at it today with cid when he comes up. That truck is nice bro can you take more pics of the whole truck all over.

forgot to mention this was already done to it

the firewall has already been shaved/smoothed
the brake master cylinder is mounted under the cab
has brand new floorboards and cab corners already put in




yeah, i have to go to the junkyard sometime this week and pick up some headlight bezels and get lights from autopart store and i gotta do a little witing to get it all working. The motor runs GREAT ! i got it home, put a battery in and it fired right up. Asfar as bagging it....all i used to do was s10's and have a few sets of cups in the garage, have a set of brand new valves, have a set of RE6's and a set or RE8's i bought for the mazda, i have a spare 4link too...all i need is the notch and back bag brackets...i can have this thing on air in a day if i really work on it.

thanks for the compliments guys!

BTW... i payed $2000 for it and got alot of extra parts that came with it.
