    Been doing what I can till I rip the other one apart. Hit u pull for some parts. Replaced the ignition switch, and no more starter issues. Found a non a/c blower box to get rid of the huge a/c one. What a difference. Thanks Mark!! Had to replace most of the interior. Pulled the suspension seats out of rig to get them fitted in this one. I really like the space in the cab. I was expecting to feel cramped compared to the full size, but I wasn't at all. It is nice to be able to recline my seat without hitting the back window. Still looking for an auto console so the shifter will be between the seats. The stock 1500 4x4 shifter should work out in the s10 cab.
    I decided to tear the rig apart after the Windrock trip in September. Hoping to have it done by the Harlan southern shine in May. That's about 9 months...

        The rest of the truck is gone. Now I can easily roll the cab around in the garage. Time to sort though some wiring and get rid of wires I dont need.

            Gone, or just out of the garage?

            Cut that frame in two, bolt a coupler to the back half, and sell your new "trailer" for half what you paid for the truck!

              Gone. Hit the scrap yard this morning. I got half of what I paid for the truck. $200

                Where did you take it that gave $200? Most places I have heard only offer $50-100 right now for scrap vehicles.

                  Garden st on new haven rd. 110 a ton for unclean at 3120lbs. It was like $172 and I had a few radiators and some brass to go along with it. Together it was $196.

                          Got a 3 &4 link kit with 1.25 hiems from RuffStuff. Saved $300 on a black Friday deal. Merry Christmas to me.

                            After a looong pause... it's time to get busy.
                            Started getting rid of the extra wiring and finding what i need to hook back up. Most of the wiring will come over with the engine. Once i get the wiring sorted out, I'll start building a frame. Then the old rig gets stripped.Click image for larger version

                              Glad to see the pause is over. Are you going to use the factory gauge cluster?

                              Going back with a 241, or change it out for something gear driven?

                                Yes I will use the factory gauge cluster. It should wire up just like my old one.
                                After breaking four 241 cases, I'll be putting in an atlas this time
