"looks" like the hard part is done drop a v8 in it and goooo

For the outside to be so badass (hey, I'm a wagon/delivery guy), he sure lamed out on the use of the S10 dash pieces...(with the exception of the cluster, it actually looks well-done).

For all the work that went into that, that's a real steel. Even though I'm definitely NOT a Ford guy, I really like it.

Might be an okay deal if I happened to have a '54 Ford frame to drop it on. The S10 dash stuff is gross. The 2200 is just plain lame. And I hate the wheels.
Other than that, it's perfect.

The chop looks funny; it needs sectioned, too.

 

[DRIVEN]

I don't like chopped tops 99.8% of the time. Guess the sectioning is subtle enough that I don't see it.

2.2? really? guess there weren't any 4.3 powered s-10's that were rotted out at the time he was looking....

 

[Doug Chahoy]

Atleast with the S-10 frame, you have so many EASY to find upgrade sources for everything you'd want to do with it. From engine/transmission to exhaust and suspension.

This thread is an example of a MAJOR PEEVE I have. Someone posts a picture of a project that someone has put alot of time and money into and atleast 60 percent of the following posts are negative. ATLEAST let he who has done BETTER throw stones. Some pay a shop to do they're work then criticise somebody elses work. I've put a total of $15,000 and hundreds of hours into customizing my El Camino into a custom 2 dr. wagon. I don't know if I'll EVER post any pics. Where's the sense on that if most of what you read is negative from someone who most of the time hasn't done more than write checks.
