hey everyone. i haven't been on in a few days because i've been buying something new. cool.gif and...i sold the tib. joke.gif lmao.gif just kidding. everyone who knows me knows i would never sell the tib. i bought another vehicle that i can drive instead of driving the tib all the time. so...you want to know what i bought? well lets just say it's over 300 HP and 355 T. i'm not kidding! i bought a chevy s10 with a engine swap from a 1968 camaro. the engine is a chevy small block 327 5.4L V8. the truck has many performance mods; some include:

*GM Performance Parts Crate Engine Heads

*Billet Aluminum Pulley Kit W/Remote Mounted Power Steering Reservoir

right now the truck is painted yellow, but there are a few blemishes in the condition of the paint such as rust spots here and there and there are some places that paint has come off. i'm going to be getting it painted black pretty soon after i take delivery. i'm very anxious to see how much power this baby actually puts out. i'm considering getting a dyno done on it. i pick it up on friday in NY. wink1.gif i don't know if i'm going to be keeping everything that comes on the truck or not...i may sell some stuff from it...but all the performance parts are staying. lmao.gif i'm not too sure about the neon lighting and such. anyway, i just thought i'd share my great news.
and before anyone posts this

That sounds badass. How convenient you get it right after I show you the pic of my 1968 Camaro. laugh.gif joke.gif Those are some awesome numbers for an S10 since it's so light. Can't wait to see pics.

scary truck! I would be careful in the rain with that one. I used to try one of the original nissan "hardbody" pickups. It was a stripped version with rear wheel drive and a five speed.. that little truck was fast with the 4 cylinder... easy to get her sideways and hold her there...

Your truck is going to be a handful.. but it also sounds like a lot of fun too. Goodluck and please be careful!
