thanks, i like the old style a lot. my first vehicle was a '90 s-10 with a 4.3L and i loved it. $500 cash ecause it wouldnt stay started, $70 for fuel pump and ran like a champ. i tore that truck up so bad and it kept on going. i once even got it up to about 120 mph. it was a beauty - half paint / half rust - all chevy. kinda brings a tear to my eye. Anyhow - i plan for clear lens all over the front, maxzone tails off andysautosport.com, a 3 inch lift and some new rims/tires. im thinking chrome 4x4 tires.

I just need some touching up and maybe thinking of removing that damn spare tire bracket on the back... it rattles something horrible and its all rusty where the rest of the truck is fine.

me and some help from my friend. that was our first time painting an entire vehicle.he did my rims on my car. but im not going to pay someone to do something i could figure out. and at the least, its more valueable to have to do it 3 or 4 times if needed to get good at it and be able to do it right from then on. at least thats how i see it.

Ya, I like to figure stuff out myself, too. Knowledge is always a good thing.
