Hey guys ive been on here for a pretty good while. Ive built 3 trucks since 05 and been a member since 03 or 04 with a different name(99lilredsdime). Here are my previous trucks ive built before i start this project. Every s10 ive built has been from everyones help on here.
My first s10 on boyd coddington magneato 18s.

Then i bagged it on Boyd Coddington Savages 20s

I sold it in 06 like an idiot. It went through 3 people and i finally found it 2 or 3 years ago totaled. i bought it back for 2000 bucks.

and just for shits and giggles here is my silverado i drove daily after i sold the red truck in 06

Last year I took all the suspension, wheels tires, hood and interior off the red truck and bought a 94 and stock floor body dropped it.

i lost interest in body dropping the truck so i sold the frame and body and kept the suspension and wheels.
In June of 2011 i bought this for 600 bucks

I put my kp 6link on the back

air ride tech arms up front

and notched it over the summer

relocated the wiring harness

notched for tie rods

welded trailor fenders in the front

and layed it out

I put a 2.2 in it a few weeks ago and today i noticed that it was leaking oil. I plan on pulling the motor, laying chassis saver down and putting it back in. I just switched to a tilt collumn last weekend. My future plans are to drive this some this spring summer while i continue to do work to it and lay it out on some 22s(racelines), install a hydro boost,build an AC and Heater box, shave a few things repaint and maybe a 5.3 or 6.0 next winter. Keep an eye out for updates.

Ive built everyone of these trucks out of lexington tennessee. If i was smart with money i would have bought them already built lol

Can anyone tell me the cheapest place to buy Chassis Saver on the net? No where sells it in the small town of lexington. Also anyone on here have a hook up with raceline wheels? i think my wheels are going to be sold next week.
