Almost everything done, and I ran out of welding gas.

I didn't want to have to do all that welding over my head, but I had solidly tacked all the joints, as well as plated what I could before I flipped it. Almost all the top side welding was complete as well.

Flipping the frame was a bit sketchy with the complete front suspension, but it worked.

The blazer tank fits pretty good, and all the tube end caps, and gussets/fish plates are in place.

All the rear fish plates and tube end caps for the back half.

No panhard bar or watts link needed with a triangulated 4 link, and the axle has tons of bind free travel and articulation (without any coil overs)

Lots of measuring and pondering, and measuring. Then I measured more, and checked level. Then I'd get ready to weld, and measure everything again!

I relied heavily on a book by Max Fish about setting up rear suspensions. I'll be using a coilover, but I suppose air bags would work too.

This had to be the second or third day, it all ran together, but once the fame was in place it started to come together faster

I was also able to get an S10 Blazer gas tank locally before the holiday so I could make sure whatever I do I don't make things too small for it to fit.

The basic plan, I was going to do a bigger step notch but I don't want to have to raise the stock rear floor any.

Lots of measuring and leveling and checking, and rechecking

Out with the old! Just keeping it around for measurements if needed.

Its not a perfect frame, and its got a few issues that worry me, but it should work out ok once I'm done.

The cab floor looks basically brand new, so it'll be donating at least the tunnel for the '54

Found a cheap 4wd S10 rear, so at least I can get this thing rolling and built.

The S10 frame looks pretty good, but there is what I hope to be a small issue
