And my grandmother in Tennessee is in poor health, so my father's going down there once or twice a month.
And I bought a new, more expensive house on June 31st, and ended up getting laid off on July 23rd, and am still looking for a job, and my wife is having another baby on November 29th!
So who knows when we'll get back to working on it. When I think about the way the project was pushed to the side, this is what I feel like 
Where's your build thread, I'd love to see it! |
That's unfortunate it's still on hold. I didn't have too many detailed photos on my build thread, that's a long story why I no longer have them...
The thread is
here at another site. I need to post some better pics, I've changed some things since the last ones I posted there.
But the basics are this:
-1946 GMC 3/4 ton body, with the box and running boards shortened 9.5".
-1985 S-10 regular cab long box frame
-1992 S-10 Steering column, booster, diff (3:42), seat.
-1975 Buick 455 with Comp cam, Edelbrock intake, Demon carb, TH400.
-Northern radiator aluminum rad (direct fit for Hemi 'cuda).
-16" Flex-a-lite 2500CFM Pusher fan, 14" Flex-a-lite flex fan.
-31x10.5x15" Rear tires, 225/65/15 Front tires.
-Custom built Wheel Vintiques Artillery wheels, 15x8" front reversed with 3.5" backspace, 15x10" rear reversed with 3.75" backspace.
By the looks of it I set the front wheels further forward in the wheelwells than you did. It was just what looked right to me. Hopefully you get time and resources to work on yours soon!
