39 Chev 1.5 ton, need ideas what to do with it - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

about 6 months ago I bought this 39 ton-and-a-half. I didn't need it, but I got it for $100 so how can you pass up a deal like that? Now I don't know what to do with it. Any ideas? The rear end is locked up, and I really don't want to use the axles anyway. But, I'm not sure but I think the wheel opening on the larger trucks is bigger than pickups, so I'm not sure what it would look like on a S-10 frame. I really like the fenders, headlights, hood of these trucks, so rat-rodding just the cab is not something I really want to do. Getting rid of the hood fillers to show the engine would be fine.
Any thoughts?
