Not yet new to the scene.

Whats up everyone, my name is Cesare. I am starting to piece information/parts together for my next project. Right now I have a 96 s10 that is sold(waiting on the buyer to recieve his settlement check). I am planning on building a 99-04 f350, fully bagged/bodydropped.

So far I have a mint hood and fender that I picked up for $150. lol, Thats it.

I basically live down the road from Scott(tofnlows10)

Here is the s10.

WELCOME

Not bad for a s-10. Ford dually that body style will be sweet.

welcome to the site... not to far from ya jsut north of ya on 75 into michigan....... nice dime.... only bad thing with baggin and bodydropping a ford is the ibeams would recommenced a chevy 1 ton clip to rid ur self of the headachse

yo.

welcome to the site .. nice dime.

Welcome, nice s-10 cant carry much in the bed (lol), your new ride sounds like it will be killer keep us updated.

Thanks for the compliments and welcomes.

I will be building the frame bumper to bumper, chevy spindles/brakes.
I have a rack and pinion for a mustang so I may be using that, not sure about width or durability on using that yet though.

I am at a complete toss up on the engine right now. I know that I want 15+ mpg, and that I would like to use a gas chevy engine, but I am not sure yet though. I know that the lsx gets good mileage, but don't know about using it for towing. I also know that the 7.3 power strokes are an amazing engine if you treat it right, so i don't know. Suggestions are more than welcome.

The interior will have a late 50s chevy dash, bench seats, and door panels that are close to that of older trucks.

Paint will be some kind of blue. Maybe a satin.

The truck will be fully function. I will use the bed for doing landscaping(possibly a dump bed) and a hitch for pulling trailors. The air will be hardlined and there will be inner fenders so that I can drive it in the winter.

damn got all your i's dotted and ts crossed now do it.... not like can do much in the winter LOL winter for us midwesterners is garage time
