Need opinions on this S10 chassis for sale.

I found this local to me on FB Marketplace. I know its a short wheelbase chassis. Just seems like a lot of chassis for to little price with the work a parts already invested.

Re: Need opinions on this S10 chassis for sale.

those upper arms are the el cheapo speedways which need greased a lot, better to just replace them with standard arms. and you wouldnt need a step notch that size for 26s.

but thats a kp 6 link (or similar) and thats worth more than the asking price, even used. and the rollers all look to hold air, thats worth $100 by itself to me haha.

my 2 pennies.

I would loved to have found one like that when I built my S10/AD.

Re: Need opinions on this S10 chassis for sale.

The only thing that spooks me about a bare rolling chassis like that is proof of ownership.
That probably isn't an issue when the plate is still hanging on the rear bumper though.. You might even get the title or be able to see the title and get a photo copy as proof you that you legally bought the frame and get a good bill of sale.

We have a serous problem here with rigs with popular parts getting stolen and those parts being sold. The rest usually gets dumped out on a back road because of the hassle to sell scrap auto parts to the scrap yard now.

I'd think that Joedoe or some of the guys can give you some pointers on stretching the frame out to the right wheelbase and still have it look decent and be safe.
