Yes it is.
Today I got the front end hanging on it's own, front clip body mounts are tacked in. I need to do a bunch more work to the inner fenders before I can take them off to clean and paint.

Re: 1950? S-10 tdi

On the weekend I got the cold side of the intake put together. Then put in a crossmember and bumper supports. 2x4 1/8" then 2x2 1/4", I added a lower brace but forgot to take picture. The bumper is the tow truck bumper that came with this truck it is 1/4" thick it will never dent that's for sure. It is now sitting at what will be ride height, bumper at 7" and running boards will be at 6".

Working on getting the running boards installed. Brackets are 1x2" tube getting bolted to the frame. I cut all the old bracket off.

Re: 1950? S-10 tdi

Working on the motor wiring. This motor came out of a swap, who ever did this swap should not do wiring. I already cleaned up a bunch when I got the motor running, now on to the rest.
This is what I started with last night and this is the type of thing I found 2 wires in 2 wires out and a ball of extra taped up, like just cut it and twist the wires together with tape would be better imo.
Now its all cleaned up ready to make the harness fit.
