Selling the '91 S-10 I bought to steal the rust-free bed from.

Cons:
It's ugly
It's high miles (almost 212K)
The windshield leaks (needs re-sealed)
It's ugly
Passenger shoulder strap won't retract
Horn doesn't work
It's ugly

Pros:
Heat works well
A/C blows cold (yes, it really does)
Runs decent (4.3)
Tranny shifts great (700R4)
Brakes work great
Cruise control works
No oil leaks, doesn't seem to burn it either
Drives down the road decent
Averages 22 mpg city/highway
All four tires match and have some life left
All gauges work

$500 firm. If you can look past the ugly, it's a great little pickup. Here's pics from when I bought it. I have since removed all the silly trim, straightened the mangled fender a little, and swapped beds.

Oh yeah, I feel confident this truck could be driven anywhere without trouble.

That interior would look better with no door panels and no dash just to get rid of the velvet part.... :puke:

With that said, if you were closer I'd actually consider taking it off your hands :shrug:

I agree, don't see many long bed s-10's my buddy had one with a terrible bed and he got a complete bed with tailgate and one taillight for $75, it was almost rust free, he got a heck of a deal, considering it was a junkyard and he paid $30 for the other taillight before.

Lol, yeah it is indeed purple crushed velvet. The PO put it in there... it's on the headliner and back of the cab too:roflbow: It looks so horrible that I decided to leave it:crazy:

And it's a longbed too. I had been looking for a rust free bed for several years and could never turn one up. Everyone thought I was kidding when I said I would buy a whole truck just for the bed, haha.

I would make a bed for it, if it was 4WD. I really dig the LWB 4x4 S-10s man. :waytogo:
