Re: Newbie
Welcome!
Got any pics of the truck? What's your background/interest in them? Have you worked on cars a lot?
Good luck - this site has all you need and more!

Re: Newbie
I have some automotive background but left the field to be an amusement park mechanic. A friend of mine has a xtreme and that is what got me interested in the s-series. This is the first one I've owned. I come from that dark world of imports, haha! couple jettas, supra, and sc400.
If the truck is legal by then, I'll try and make it out to the meet. I appriciate the invite!!
This truck was a lucky find/save. I'm not surprised anyone spotted it. The CL ad said it was just a s10. I passed over it about 3 times. I just happened to finally click it and actually look at the pictures.
Yes, Im aware the front end, wheels, and mirrors are wrong..... like i said she's a project.

Re: Newbie
Great find and awesome to have you.
Now you need to get her running before going for a boost launch in one of the other trucks on this site... You'll be hooked!
Amusement park mechanic is perfect - you'll be used to the "ups and downs" of owning one of these trucks. (I'll get me coat... :lol

That's actually a rare factory option. The screwdriver doubles as a shiv.

Re: Newbie
I saw them. I may be buying Brian's satin bumper. The rear pieces on mine need replacing as well. They are on ebay for $200 a side. Here's the only rear pic i have and a pic of the interior
