Newbie from Illinois

I'm new to this forum, it looks like a great one. My main objective is to learn as much about a 1938 Chevy Pickup to S10 frame swap and maybe help someone else along the way! Anyone with any good information on the frame swap please let me know. I would truly appreciate it!

 

Welcome. Too lazy to look at a map so where abouts is Kingston. Is it Kingston Mines North of Peoria? Hopefully you can get hooked up with someone near you.

Whats wrong with the 38 frame?

 

Think GENOA-Kingston...or a wide spot on Rt 72, west of Elgin about 15 -20 miles

Hello, from Iowa, not far from you and welcome aboard. I would try to use the 37 frame , it's really not that hard at all. Chassis Engineering is in Iowa and also not too far from you and they can set you up with everything you need to do the chassis right. Good luck
