  Here is an extremely straight not a door ding absolutely show  straight body with a professional paint job done frame off inside and out all door jambs under hood bed etc however it was frame offed about 10 years past then fell into some barn after engine threw rod.  I bought it for way too much $ because of the condition of body and underneath, which  is almost as impressive.  zero rust none.  The underside is clean as well.  Anyway I had my mechanic who specializes in s10 rods and races an s10 Blazer do the install of basically a very nice running 350 which had  been rebuilt out of a show cutlass who upgraded to 450 hp.  Engine seems to be stock truck motor out of pre 1996 Chevrolet Tahoe or suburban with a 4 bbl and dual exhaust.  the trans is a 700r4 which shifts very smooth and the rear end I'm guessing is 3:25 somewhere around there.  Now with the 16" Camaro z28 rims it will spin the tires at will even at speed so the motor has too much power to do anything with without going posi and some type of traction aid.

It is basically a driver and she is very dependable my son has driven it the past month daily since his car was broken.  It is very well mannered if driven like Grandma or she will fly if desired.  The gas mileage is decent with the 700r.  I bought the car also because it had both heat which works well and a/c system complete.  Most s10 conversions remove everything but this one is a step above.

I was going to finish  it and do everything but I have recently been given custody of a 2 yr old to go along with the 6 yr old so now I cannot use this truck and need ext cab.  so before I paint it and it gets more expensive I'm putting her up for cheap.

This truck could be extremely nice with very little elbow grease, plus you can drive it anywhere any distance right now.

new alternator, new starter, new battery, brakes are excellent, exhaust is perfect, gas is clean and electric fuel pump works dependably.   Best of all it does not get hot with the 2 electric fans and the special aluminum radiator


stuff needing attention     :1.  seats need removed and new springs installed they are shot

                                          2.  there is water coming in on drivers side floor there is an easy fix on internet haven't got to it yet

                                          3.  speedocable either broke or disconnected it was working but not now

                                         4.  headliner is new but glue failed and needs reglued

                                         5.  never bothered to hook up radio

Hillary Clinton takes to campaign trail in a van called Scooby

Wed, Apr 15 2015

It still seems way too early to even starting thinking about the 2016 presidential election, but candidates are already throwing their hats in the ring. Among the officially announced hopefuls so far is former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. To kick off her run for office, she recently embarked on a long-distance road trip from her home in New York to the campaign battleground of Iowa. Rather than a limo, she was driven there in a conversion van (pictured above) that Clinton named Scooby after Hanna-Barbera's famous, mystery-solving dog. According to Yahoo Autos, the vehicle itself is a Chevrolet Express that has been customized by the Explorer Van Company, and Time says that it's also armored. Clinton isn't behind the wheel, though. All those years in public office mean that the Secret Service does the driving. Of course, the vehicle in Scooby Doo was named the Mystery Machine, and Scooby was mostly brown, not black. To explain the somewhat odd naming, Clinton traveled around in a brown van during her 2000 Senate campaign in New York, and it earned the nickname Scooby, according to Time. Apparently, the moniker has stuck for her latest ride. If the start of the Clinton campaign seems early, she isn't the first White House hopeful to arrive in Iowa this year. A bunch of possible Republican candidates already met at summits in the state at least twice to gain favor ahead of the caucus there. No word on what they were driving...
