About my S10

Bought this as a project as the body was in good condition, Motor went a couple of months later so I am going to rebuild it and make it look nice.
Has been lowered but need to re-do the front as the springs were for the lighter original engine.
going to find some bigger wheels eventually.
All and all it is a good start for what I want it for.

Oh the paint, well going to start by sanding it to metal, etch prime, then prime it, black base, some graphics designed by a couple of friends then a kandy colour over the whole thing, It is going to look sweet once I eventually get it done but that is just a plan in my head, all could change as I get started on it, one good thing about painting it yourself, lol.
Pics will be added once I get it underway, just got to do the engine stuff first.

I am just going to rebuild the engine I have in it, I think it is a 350 but will only be sure once I pull it out and check the numbers.
Man I can't wait till I get it done and back in, such a fun truck to drive with a V8 in it. lol

Interesting project!  What sized motor are you looking to install? If you’re doing all the work yourself look into getting ASE Certified & have a second trade.  Keep the ride & relationships righteous & REAL!    Godpeace.
