Update from the Tranny Back...

Turns out we won't be able to use the S-10 drivetrain in its entirety, since it's too long and the rear end is way too narrow. We will use the transmission and maybe the drive shaft (depending on the cost of cutting it down vs having a new one made), and we still have the '69 Firebird rear end that measures up perfectly. Looking at tweaking the springs as well, to lower the stance slightly - not more than a couple inches. Hoping to have it all wrapped up sometime in the next few weeks.

Feeling a little nostalgic as we approach the one year anniversary of my first ever drive in the dream ride next month. Here's the first photo taken the day we pulled her out of my brother's garage and she became mine...



See y'all down the road!
