Chevytruck10, you've done a lot of work, nice repairs to the cab. If you haven't seen it yet Skymangs has thread all about work with the AD cab and s-10 frames, I'll try to post a link. I also used a 54 bed on my 50 and had to modify the frame, but you know yours will need that anyway. I think I would move the engine back another 1-1/2 or 2", by the pics, but I could be wrong. Yes heat up all the lead and remove, make any repairs and then do your body work. You can check out my build on some of the body work stuff. check with you later....Jim
