Rear window on a 42 is like a 46 --no bolts. It appears that the gas fill had a leather grommet not rubber ---so ---could be a 42 -----43, 44, 45 --not a 46. But the engine s/n may tell for sure. As I understand vin numbers did not come out on chevys until 47. I see few usable parts on it as it has sat outside too long. May be some salvagable parts somwhere. My 42 is on an s-10 blazer 2wd frame. The ride is nice and it solves a lot of problems. Moved the s10 mounts back 3" for the 350 sbc. Use the s10 v8 header and a shortshaft from a 67-72 steeering and column.

The correct length frame is an s10 117" wheel base used under the extended cab. My bed is 7" shorter than stock. The trick is to set the cab and front end up and if using the s10 power steering --get a custom radiator that misses the power steering gear. All this has been done many times by many. but I can supply pics if needed of my setup.
