1990 Single cab S10. 4.3, 5 Spd, LSD.

My faithful, handy little chevy. 

Bought this thing three years ago with intentions of stripping out and race-car-ing. It turned out to be in such good shape I felt bad about doing that so I just drove it instead.

It is a 1990, regular cab, short bed S10 Tahoe. 4.3 V6, 5 speed, 2 wheel drive. There are 215k miles on the clock. The AC has been removed. There is a tear/wear spot on the carpet on the drivers side. The seat belts have seen better days. The 14" wheels have mismatched old tires. There are a few small patches of rust (pictured). The clutch is starting to chatter, but does not slip. There is a tear in the seat cover. The handle bezel on the drivers interior handle is under the seat. The weather stripping is all but gone. Luckily I live where things don't rust so nothing is worse than when I got it and most things are better. The paint is 28 year old truck paint, but I have waxed it and kept it clean... for what it is worth. There is one decent dent in the side of the bed and sever small dings.

In the last two years I have replaced/rebuilt the following:

Rebuilt stock rear end, timken bearings and seals, Torsen limited slip, 3.08 gears

New thermostat, water pump and hoses

New heater core

Rear 3"drop springs with leaf spring sliders

Front and rear Blazer sway bars

Front Monroe shocks

Moog lower control arm bushings

Truck is in St. George, UT. PM me or add take my user name and add 1200@ g male.com and I'll give out my number.

Posted in the challenge classifieds with hopes it actually makes it to Florida. The handling is great for a truck, and it is just some horse power from being fast. I have some SBC swap mounts somewhere I'll toss in if I can find them. Or look how much room there is in front of the radiator with no AC condenser in there... hint, hint. Or it is just a solid truck with very little body rust, and none on the frame (seriously, the desert is awesome). I have driven this truck daily for three years and would drive it to the moon without any worries at all. Great candidate for a fly-n-drive. 

Anyway, asking $1800, Thanks for looking. Party on.

Thank the Good Lord I saw that wildly inflated price of $1,800 dollahs  because I have started to fall in love with these trucks.  I'm not quite as in love as I am with certain 90s 2dr Nissans but....

Also my reference right now and Good Lord I hope it stays around there is the two-fitty I paid for my '84 V6.  But I am tempted.  Good luck with the sale.  

In reply to nutherjrfan :

It is a bit high. Everything is around here. But I come to the party ready to bargain. 

Those gauges just gave me a flashback to highschool- a friend and I yumped one of these (same color and everything) and misjudged our speed, nearly flying it into the side of a building in the process.  Tough suspension on those trucks 

Damn... that looks like so much fun.  Little 2WD trucks like that have mostly rusted away to nothing around here (and/or suffered the above). 

Nice.  Makes me think I really need to finish the S10 sitting in my garage. 

I've got a real soft spot for these trucks. One of my first friends to get their own car in high school had a tan long bed S10, which was then sold to another friend of mine. Naturally, we did all kinds of dumb E36 M3 in that truck and it took it all like a champ. 2nd friend sold it to some guy down the road from my parents' place and I still drive by every once in a while to keep tabs on it. I've got dreams of one day buying it and sticking either an LS or 350 under the hood.  

I had a dream about this truck last night.  I drove it home through a grassy, dirty field, and came roaring up to Mrs. VCH in a cloud of dust and smoke.  She kindof smiled at me, and said, "What's this?  This is kinda cool!"  And I told her what it was, and she laughed, and got in.  

Then I woke up.  

Shameless bump and price chop. How do I start the haggling at $1500 Alex?

If you weren't most of the way across the US from me (Alabama) I'd be asking by buddy for a ride.  What's your zip, maybe I can arrange shipping?  The Elco that i got from SVreX has a pretty sweet 355 in it that would be epic in your truck

Sold. Please delete thread?
