Re: Just a few Q's before jumping into S-10/49GMC swap

If you are planning on using the grain trucks hood and fenders, you may have a problem with the s10 swap. I believe the large trucks (1 1/2 ton and larger) have longer hoods and longer and wider fenders than an 1/2, 3/4 or 1 ton pick up. Not sure how well it would fit up on the s10. S10's are already a little narrow in front and require a wheel spacer to get the width correct. That may be tough to do with the large truck fenders. Also the wheel opening size on the fender is quite a bit bigger on the large trucks. Depending on the wheel tire combo you are planning on, it might not look right. The cabs are the same on all the trucks.
