Re: 51 Chevy 1/2 ton, My S10 swap
Looks good! I hope mine looks the same in a few weeks but in black primer.

Re: 51 Chevy 1/2 ton, My S10 swap
First round of blocking and priming done on the cab. I hope to go in early Monday and reprime. Maybe ready for jamming the cab next weekend.
Did a little more clean up/ painting on my 327. Still need to clean up and paint the valve covers.

Re: 51 Chevy 1/2 ton, My S10 swap
Yeah, I am very fortunate that my work lets me do some things there. It's hard not to take advantage of their generosity. I wish I could keep the whole truck there, but that would be too much to ask!!
I got the final priming done on the cab, and I'm hoping to jam it this week.

Re: 51 Chevy 1/2 ton, My S10 swap
I finished priming the cab monday morning, and finished sanding the door jams and firewall and dash. Ready for jamming. I'm not sure if I will have time this week, for sure no time on saturday.
I also got some mid-eighties Camaro aluminum wheels. Spent some time this week stripping off a couple of layers of old paint. I think I'll paint them when I jam the cab.

Re: 51 Chevy 1/2 ton, My S10 swap
Cab is seam sealed and ready for jamming. This week for sure!!
Also started painting the wheels. Epoxy primed, sealed and first color of base coat on. Hopefully I'll have time to two tone and clear them on sunday.

Re: 51 Chevy 1/2 ton, My S10 swap
Painted my wheels this weekend. I'm very happy with how they turned out!
The orange on the spokes will be the color of the truck. I'll add chrome center caps and chrome lug nuts.

Re: 51 Chevy 1/2 ton, My S10 swap
Atommik, looks great. It is always nice to see everything one color in primer. Wheels look good and I like the color too. It is coming along great.

Re: 51 Chevy 1/2 ton, My S10 swap
Daze57, drive55, xpickup,
Thanks for your kind words. It is exciting to see progress!! I was going to paint my truck red but my kids said that was boring...so ORANGE it will be!!! They love the color I picked! I started masking off the cab to jam, and paint the firewall and inside of the cab. That should get done this week.

Re: 51 Chevy 1/2 ton, My S10 swap
Painting the door jams (door openings on cab) and the back side of the doors. Basically jamming is painting the areas not directly visible, when the vehicle is assembled. (Inside edges of fenders etc...

Re: 51 Chevy 1/2 ton, My S10 swap
Down with the flu Tuesday-Friday, Mercedes Benz training next week, probably won't touch the truck for the next week or so.
