Scored this over the weekend....rough, but it will make a good beater.1939 International cab, 1940 Dodge doghouse,chevy S-10 frame. Plans are for a small block, radiator mounted in the bed, and drive the wheels off of it! Any ideas or suggestions? Does anyone know of any build threads for running a radiator in the bed? I don't want to sink a bunch of money into it, so it will be a low budget build.
^^^^^ thats what i was thinkin^^^^ seems more work and i s that reliable if u wana drive the wheels off of it
It is set up on a S-10 frame, the water pump will be up into the grill shell. Just thought it would be different to run the radiator back there, since the body is channeled so far over the frame, the kick up in the back pretty much eats up the rest of the space in the bed.
Littleman runs his in bed .....see pics of deaths doorstep on here. personally I would figure a way to fit it up front. you may wanna use that bed for haulin ****
how bout you unchannel it and set the body right and get a lowering kit for the s10 frame and then the radiator should fit were it belongs
He is emulating a racecar from the days of old, with no radiator; it's an illusion. Why do it on a pickup truck?
thats one inbred looking project there! cut,slice and dice as it won't hurt a thing and keep posting pictures of your progress.
