Re: My version of the s10 swap

I drove it today!

Last weekend I topped off the fluids and hooked up the cooling system. This weekend finished up a bunch of wiring, hooked up some grounds and double checked everything. Today I put the new wheels and tires on, started it up and pulled it out of the garage, down the driveway and turned around in the street. Worked great on it's first trip under it's own power. I let it idle in the driveway for a long while, cooling fan isn't turning on so I need to look into that. Big steps forward, getting very excited!



Don't mind the junk in the back, that's what happens to anything that sits in my garage more than overnight!






Received word from my body man that the fenders were painted yesterday. He ran out of clear so he didn't get the hood done, hopefully soon. More progress will come!
