    Well i think its time to get into another car again,
    asking 5500$ WIll only trade for a mk3 cabrio, must have a black interior
    i stopped counting how much i have into at after 8k

    Its a 1996 chevy s10 ext cab with a 4.3l and a 4l60e, motor/trans have 110k aprox on them now
    I had a set of modern lines that i traded for the truck when it had a bad motor. After i pulled the motor i decided i wanted to bag it and body drop it since ive wanted to build a truck for a while now, so on to the details

    Suicide doors weld on 3 link with raised gas tank x-member and 8" step notch
    Slam specialties re-7 up front and re-8 in the back with behind and under mounts
    drop spindles
    flat plated lower arms
    Speedway motors upper tubular arms

    Air zenith ob2 with a 5gal tank with water trap
    hydrobooster out of an astro van,
    every brake line replaced
    body dropped 2-3/4 inches to lay rocker
    bride racing bucket seats with 4 point harnesses
    kicker l7 sub nicely mounted being the seat
    accuair switchspeed switch box
    nrg quick release hub with personal steering wheels
    20" wheels/tires
    NO HEAT/OR AC

    I daily drive it with no issues, Knock on wood i have had one single issue since it got put on the road in march, ive driven it 4 hours one way to a show with no problems
