'50 Chevy S-10 Swap Build

[Chevytruck10]

Progress really slowed through the winter and didn't really do much work. I did pick up a 1954 bed, running boards and splash aprons, and a new set of 1950 front fenders. I liked the flat top rails and the deeper depth in the 1954 bed plus my bed was in about as good of shape as the rest of the truck. He had the tailgate but wanted $175 so I passed on that. The front fenders I had were both rotted out pretty bad behind the wheels so I couldn't pass up on these that were in much better shape.




I also ordered some motor mounts to mock up the engine. I put it right on the original s-10 motor mounts after doing some searching on the web. These were the mounts I had and am still not positive which ones they were. Don't know if anyone knows which these are.

Got the motor sitting in. Not right up against the firewall but not too much space either. I planned on probably running an electric fan so I think this should give me enough room.
