Re: 51 Farm Truck
I followed the S10 Swap thread pretty much to the T with minor exeptions.
I used my own cab mount design based on a blend of designs from that thread and the design using a 4x4 tubing. I bent mine out of flat plate but they "look" like the 4x4 design sort of. I regret not taking pictures of the metal fabrication components. As an ex-autobody guy, and an old farmer, I used what was laying around and engineered around what I had. I was able to weld everything with my Hobart 140. I cut everything either with a cutoff wheel, jig saw or the sawzall.
I completely disassembled the frame and had it sandblasted. I then primed it with DP90 and painted it chassis black.
