Re: I started an S10/S15 club!

ol, I'm in.
Always liked the first gen dimes. one day I'll have a Sy/Ty version...

Got a 93 sonoma, with 95/96 S-10 SS 4.3 block backed by 700r4 w/manual VB and slap-stick shifter, and 'stupid arse' 4.11 rear gear and all sort of other assorted goodies done throughout. it's fun, fast, and first is basically useless, because of the rear end ratio, it just spins the 275/60r15's.... a 3.73 gear is on my wishlist. I basically take off in 2nd almost everywhere I go keeps up with traffic no prob haha. in the rain, 2nd is even a little skittish if you're hard on the throttle, but first in the rain is just goofy.
Although it makes for impressive burnouts and donuts, it'll roast the tires off in no time, gets expensive though...
and yes, one of the first things I did was take the 'SS' stickers off.


underhood



I really got it to shoehorn the chassis under the truck in the background... but that's a project for down the road.

^ stickers taken off(it has a huge 'Super Sport' sticker on the tailgate), new tint and detailed. yea, I'm pic monger...
