Re: 51 Chev on a S10 frame, named Dale

I installed the rest of the jute on the floor, and then the carpet. (indoor/outdoor from Lowes), used some aluminum angle to make a sill plate to secure edge of carpet.

Then I installed the seats, 60/40 from early 90's full size GM pickup.

Then............ we took it for a drive !!!!!

all went well, drives easy, steers straight, stops well, and clutch is smooth. (wife thinks the clutch pedal is a little stiff, but not bad)

Still lots to do, make a bed floor, needs trim rings and dog dish, interior work, seat belts, radio, front bumper, rear bumper? maybe roll pan?? but we can now drive it and enjoy it while the rest of the work continues......... and something to keep me busy for the upcoming winter.
