The first build is always the hardest, but learning as you go is fun. Your set up is unique and if it was easy that means everyone would do it. The s-10 set up is great for many things, sour for some others but I think you will like it. I would just suggest an additional plate inside your sectioned frame then box it, just to be safe.

Did you try moching up your driveshaft yet? Seems like you should have room, but depending on how high or low the engine is that can effect your driveshaft.

Looks great. If I had this truck, I would leave the patina, I think it has a ton of character. Oh and don't worry so much about being out classed. Do what you want and what you feel comfortable with. Atleast you got that lift to work with, alot of us would do many things to have one!!
