Kinda effed that up, but here is Kooper and his truck out in front of my shop. We dropped the rear a couple of inches with blocks and now gonna cut a little off of the front coils to get it down to earth. Also notice, he HAD to have a cowl hood, made a deal with Grandmother to mow her lawn for life if she would finance the hood. First one came in dented, second one good!!


He better not forget she's gonna remember that deal 10 years from now haha

I've thought about a cowl hood for mine, just for looks.

Anyone know of a fix for a broken rear view mirror? I went to adjust it and it came apart. Would like to keep it because it has the dual map lights. I'm using one from a C10 for now, it's the same width as the S10 mirror.

Looks busted pretty good. I've got a box of those somewhere too. With the map lights. I can look for one when I look for your centercaps that I forgot about. If you get a chance, remind me tomorrow in case I forget again.

Just a reminder if you get a chance to look for those S10 parts. Thanks.

I struck out. I have none of those centercaps left it seems. Also no luck yet in the mirror department. Apparently they have a tendency for the mirror glass to delaminate around the edges, making black blotchy areas appear.

When it rains it pours. Found a leak at the radiator and heard a clunking sound. The fan clutch started wobbling after it warmed up and the fan was hitting the bottom fan shroud. I pulled the radiator and found where the PO used silicone to patch some holes. New radiator and fan clutch ordered.

I love these mini Squarebody trucks. I'm always looking for a clean one, just haven't found one yet or sold before I get there.

The Syclone prices jumped 50% in the last 5 years so I'll probably have to wait on one of those but always on the hunt for an S10 Cameo, S10 SS, but really want an SGT.
