Straight six on an S10 frame

[Purec4]

Anyone using the S-10 chassis tried to mount an original six on it? Does it work, not worth the effort, ???? If I have to replace the frame because of rust issues, I really want to keep the six if possible, that and no money for another motor. Or just back half the frame like I had thought of doing.
thanks

My friend has a 1/2 ton frame stripped down and ready to go, just outside of Chalotte, cheap.

I too have a 53 frame that I am not using. I had it sandblasted and painted 10 years ago but never used it I too would let it go cheep?
P.S. this frame came from Hot springs maybe my frame knew you truck??
