body swap

mys10 · 08-12-2008, 12:10 AM

i have a 93 s10 that i got from my grandfather this past year. it has a lot of rust on the body but the frame is good. the body needs floor pans, rockers, cab corners, bed ( but im doing a step side) fenders, and doors. it would be easier to buy a new truck but i want to restoy. would it be easier and or cheaper to repair or swap the cab. i want to door a v8 swap too but thats later. i want the body done first, then ill do the motor over the winter.

Pictures would probably be better for the body guys here, but I would guess that you would probably be better off swapping it. Keep in mind, I've never attempted body work before.
