Re: 55.1 S10 swap Gypsum

VIOLA! quick and easy bed mounting, even easier than using the 1x1.5. mount with 3/8 carriage bolts so if you put bed wood down you can fasten it the original bed way too.





those are my running boards, he doesnt have any and will buy new, he doesnt have rear fenders yet either so this one is a couple bumpers and some final assembly away from going home. I have about 8 days in it, keep in mind there were some design hours in that too. this new kit part stuff is amazingly fast and easy to install.

oh i forgot to mention. remember the clacker motor i got for this "supposed" baby cabover i keep blabbing about? well, I got the chassis



and the donor truck.




all i really need is a transmission! and some cajones to stretch the colorado HSS frame....
