The truck project that I've seen had the gas engine driving the rear wheels and the electric motor driving the front wheels with the motor in the location that the transfer case would live, this was on a Ford Ranger and I thought that it was a pretty slick layout, the Ford Ranger is also common to have an extended cab where there is enough space for 12 6v golf cart batteries in the rear of the cab with enough space for solid racks and head room to check water, a sheet of clear polycarbanite and a small vent out the side or back window would take care of most safety issues.
But Ben, you have an S-10 so I'm not sure how everything lays out on that vehicle, but I do remember it as being a top choice for EV conversion because of the frame rail spacing under the bed.
