  1. 1934 T11. Stretched 04 S10 4X4 chassis. Extended cab. 5.3LS/4L60E/246. Push button 4x4. Still a work in progress but runs, drives and stops.
  2. 1934 T11 extended cab. 5.3/4L60E 4x4. 2004 S10 4x4 chassis stretched 24.5". Complete drive train swap from 2004 Z71 Sierra.
  3. Always been a Pontiac fan. Can't afford the very rare Pontiac truck so decided to build my own. Being a large individual, I decided to go extended cab, and I just thought making it 4x4 would be different than just throwing the body on a s10 frame, like everybody else. It's very tight. the driver fender has to be notched a bit for the power steering pump and they miss the fan by about 1.5 inches per side.
  4. JUSTA6, Everything is in the same location as the original would have been, as long as I didn't screw up! These were originally a straight 8, so plenty of room. I've been playing around with other stuff as I plan on the doing the hood and sides last. That way I can drive it sooner! Rear fender is just tacked together and bolted on but it really makes it look like a truck and gives me some much needed ambition.
  5. Justa It does run! I got to drive it out of the barn on Monday. I fixed a throttle problem on Tuesday so am golden now. The wiring you see on the floor in the next to last pic is for the heated leather seats. I still have to make the harness nice and clamp it into place.
  6. Been working on it a while but kept putting updates in the introduction section. Here goes: always wanted a truck, Pontiac quit making them in 29 (30 model year) so decided to build my own. It is a 1934 sitting on a stretched 2004 S10 4x4 chassis with a 2004 Z71 5.3/4L60 drive train. Started with a 4 door sedan, ending up with an extended cab.
  7. some progress. last pic is the header after cutting it apart and reshaping it to fit between the driveshaft and torsion bar.
  8. Body is back on, new front driveshaft is in, finally found a set of headers that fit, and engine is wired. Bed and fenders are not mounted but here is the basic idea. it will have the hood, running boards and rear fenders at some point.
  9. Thanks Frosty! I just cleaned up the heads and lapped the valves. new oil pump and front and back seals/ gaskets. I'm reworking the original harness as the only affordable harnesses don't include some things and none have the transfer case low signal. The finished harness will sneak everything up the back of the engine and fuse block/computer will be inside the cab.
  10. Update: Cab mounts are built and installed. Floor framework is finished along with rear pans. Even got some sandblasting done.
