Naw, he already said he's going to use it like a truck is supposed to be used. Why would he drop it, when it can carry much more parts the way it is?

Otherwise, I agree. It looks damn good.

Looks good, and yeah if you intend to acualy use it dont bother with all the mods.

86 GMG · 07-05-2005, 05:38 PM

parts truck huh dont drop it but definatly a 350 would be necessary

C&C Chevy · 07-05-2005, 05:58 PM

Don't about a 350 for a parts runner, but a nice upgrade to the 4.3 would be nice.

Lookin good AZ.

What did you use to polish the chrome up front? That really brought it back to life!

milehightoyz · 07-05-2005, 07:06 PM

looks great... nice color choice too

That looks good!

And all you guys are wrong about mods on a work truck and your all also wrong about droping a V8 in it.

It dont need one if it has a 4.3 in it!
Heres a pic of my old S10 "work truck" i put a L35 4.3 200 hp in it and it was lowered 3/4 and i towed a 24' travel trailer with it NO PROBLEM!

I had all the regular sport truck mods on it! K&N Fltr, headers, cat aft sys, dual ele fans, Hypertech comp. chip and on & on

This truck kept up with alot of V8 Vehicles and in a few cases beat some

i used a few actually, starting with "wenol" then on to mothers metal cleaner and polish and then buffing compound, it really does do a nice job!

ohh, i would also suggest to any of you the new mothers buff ball, takes a lot of time out of it.

tonneau is finally on now
