Re: [Project] Live-On

Cool, definately need to get some pics up though. I know it's got to be hard to build a truck in between working and everything else though. I finally got my truck in the shop today, it should be out by tommorrow evening or monday.

Where I blew the intake gasket the other day. I got it back today after school and it's running great. It set me back $370 though! That sucks about the computer though.

Re: [Project] Live-On

Dang it's changed quite a bit since 04. I was just wondering though, why did you change the bed? Did it get wrecked or what? Also your dad's noma is pretty sweet. He needs a set of second gen. zq8's though.

Re: [Project] Live-On

the part against the cab was rammed by a dirtbike, and cracked thanks to the guy that had it before me. it started to rust bad, the fender lips were bubbling and the bed framing was almost gone. i was going to buy a bed but then i bought another s10 and switched beds and sold it.

the one i had ans sold

Dang that sucks but at least insurance is going to pay for it. I'm not doing anything to mine for a while because work has cut me back to 16 hours this week and I'm putting all of my extra time into my friends Trans Am.

Re: [Project] Live-On

Yea we spent 45 minutes today just trying to get the rear bumper cover off. We had to leave before we got it off. He doesn't know much but he's got the funds so I'm basically getting to build a car for free! haha It's got a 455 Olds in it. But when the guy took it out of his other car and put it in this one he didn't hook it up so it's just bolted in and nothing is hooked up. I hope to have it running in a month or two. Once we get it running we will probably tear it down and put a set of cams in it and a new Edelbrock carb.

This is how it sat as of last week. Now we have the front radiator support and bumper off, along with other body trim. We are fixing to get the carb checked out to try and get it running first.
