I've been helping Eric sort out a number of items on the project including mounting the Smeding-built small-block Ford drivetrain as well as mounting the cab and related components. The foundation of the Willys is an '82-95 S-10 chassis that has been modified to accept the Ford drivetrain and Willys' fiberglass body and fenders. The stock GM suspension was kept intact but the stock S-10 steering box and cross-steer components proved to be too cumbersome for the new setup and were deleted in favor of a new steering system.
