How To Burn Through Sawsall Blades — Nothing stock left. All done in my 2 car garage. Looks kinda cool and only have about $2500 invested in whole thing. Has 350 v8 with ported quickburn heads and solid lift cam. Engine set back 9" from factory 2.8 mounts, cab set back one foot and dropped. Over two foot bobbed from frame ends. When finished (air bagging right now) will be waist high at windsheild. Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) |

1986 Chevy S-10 — Dad bought it as a project to learn how to do body work on. Was a rust bucket when I got it and turned out pretty good. Is a fun truck to jus cruise around in but not exactly one to throw you back in your seat lol Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) |

Full Throttle Mayhem — At 115 Horsepower, The 151 Iron Duke was a large engine for a truck that barely weighed 750 lbs. With a 4 speed Borg Warner T-5 Transmission, This truck hauled more than ass. Topping out at nearly 140 mph, this truck would shake incredibley and lift off the ground. The white walls were a nice touch, but I never completed the truck. I sold it to buy my 96. Although the truck sold for 1,200 after being completely rebuilt and originally purchased for 100 bucks. I miss it. 28 mpg. and the front end would lift if you were on a hill trying to pull out.. this truck was almost too much to handle... Almost. |

ProsGood on gas, small, nice, is great for modifications, AND ITS A CHEVY Consonly fits two people(three if you squeeze), the four cylinder is powerful, but not that fast,

Good Little Truck ( Bangin) — This truck is Bangin'. It is small so its easy to park and clean. the enterior is stylish for that of a 1986 model. a nice truck overall. it has a 4 cylinder engine in it so it gets around 25-28 MPG. so itll save a bunch on gas. it also comes in handy when moving furniture or whatever. this truck is like a blank palet when it comes to modifications, you can jack it up and put big tires on it, or you can put 22's on it like a donk( my choice), or you can put bags on it and drop it. whatever you want can be done to this truck. you came keep the four cylinder in it for gas mileage or you can drop in a V8 for more power or make it a racer. |

Typical High School Vehicle — It was ugly, loud, horrible on gas (it leaked what it didn't burn), uncomfortable, slow, and falling apart, but it my high school vehicle. The only major problem that developed in the year I owned it was a problem somewhere between the engine and transmission, but no one knew for sure what it was. It started me into off-roading, where the horrible ground clearance and massive lack of power and proper gears made it a non-performer. |
