40" high that is approx. the hood line on my gasser. Looks like a real cool car. keep us updated.

Come on Gary you couldn't take another 12 -14 inches out of the body to keep retain the lines of the car? What's a little welding, grinding, sanding, priming, more sanding, priming, blocking, more sanding, painting, sanding again, and waxing (well you got to wax all of them so I'll let that slide). Hmm may be your low on sand paper? :D
Great project! I like the idea of full a S-10 frame with a decent suspension. Just hope you are not thinking of running a 454 in front of the stock 7.5" ten bolt rear.
