Y’all should build a VW dune buggy. That would be awesome.
Power lock has changed since the days of Stacy David and the original horse power tv with chuck and Joe
Sam and Dave shade tree mechanics
I know Minitrucks are still going strong in the South, but in California where the Minitruck Trend began, most are in Southern California, Northern California not so much.
20:02 That front right tire wobbe 0_o
95 s10 is the worst year ever made.
They used to be cool around here but with all these rich YouTubers its all about myscle cars and Lamborghinis… The 80s folk done grew up.
And right now, NOTHING is "cheap" anymore!
So you're basically turning a mini truck into a car… All that crap in the bed makes the bed useless.
Making mini truck's awesome again love the mini truck content 😎
Mini truck are awesome
Best truck ever, Got a 2003 Chevy S10
First vehicle was 90 isuzu shortbed. Still have her, now shes windsor powered, msd ignition with 2 step, 18 point roll cage, ford 9" narrowed, AOD tranny with 4.56 rear gears, four link with wishbone locator, coilovers, tubed out. Im currently working on the floorboard and transmission tunnel.
I can't recall, where did they get the parts from?
If you really want to have fun with a "mini truck" you should check out NHRA's super stock GT class. I am looking at building a 2000 dime with an L79 327/350 horse from a 66 Chevy 2.
I like the vision for the finish truck
He said not a lot of money😂
You don't rescue those you junk them.
everytime i see a vehicle with eye lashes i get this over whelming urge to hang a set of nuts off the back
Finally a minitruck build, last minitruck build was project bodybag 20 years ago, which really didn't get finished. Excited to see what it's going to look like
I wanted a mini truck so bad when I was in high school but never got one…….. think its time!
Gross. Why would you destroy a perfectly good pickup by cutting up the frame and bed? You can't haul anything after you do that.
Who first had that truck took the word make over to literally 🤣🤣🤣 please guys do your thing.
I purchased off the showroom floor a GMC S15 4×4 with a massive chrome package 1986, rollbar with lamps, brush buster with lamps. It was two tone beige and white. Of all the rebuilds and barn finds, I’ve never seen a GMC S15 rebuilt.. I will say, I wasn’t happy with the clutching.
Love my mini truck glad to see you guys building one
How easy it is to put a sbc in it. I hear to easy.
How about a lifted s-10? I like both slammed and lifted. You don't see too many heavy duty lifted s-10s.
I LOVE LOVE the s10 body style, such a great little truck. I had a 96, that truck burned those tires like nothing, such a fun little ride.
The blow thru is a bad idea
Mannn the gang be glued to the tv 🤣
You need to show your bleed method for the coolant please
Maybe a Thermo Fan instead of that silly clutch.
Eager to see this bulid! Have a custom long bed 93, 350 and a stock 91, love these trucks so much, I'm a 1st gen lover but will take the 2nd gens as well, glad somebody is breathing life into these sweethearts again!
I wonder can you do a build with the stock 4.3 V6 and upgrade the Transmission not just swap everything all the time. Love the build still
Looked like the passenger wheel was about to come off when u guys was driving down the road
going to be a cool build
Damn, anyone else see that front tire wobble on the passenger side? @20:00
I did all that dumb shit 25 years ago.
am I the ONLY one that noticed the front tire about to go flying off the truck at 19:59??
Yikes to the lady add ons…
It would be cool to see a JTR/Jags That Run S-10 V8 install, but they likely won't sponsor, so it won't happen. Their motor mounts and manual are really the only things you need to buy from them, but…
I’m excited for this build
Love my 1997 S10. Turned 280k this weekend. 4.3 and get 24 mpg. On the highway. More loyal and trustworthy than any woman I’ve ever known.
I love Chevy S-10. I need help, I am looking for a donate extended cab and chassis.
Now it's going to be a useless truck
Marc. the c10 came with a 4.3 6cel. e ngine.
Anyone notice the Ranger dash in the mock-up?
Don't do the sound system!!!That is STUPID!!!!!!
There are no rules… proceeds to list a bunch of rules for a mini truck.
15:24 but thats wrong… the fan blades are offset to prevent harmonic noise. Engineers could care less about giving you space to unbolt something
Purple thing with chrome wheels = oh dear.
I vote the hula girl stays
😎
Would of been cool if it was an SS. Still cool tho I'm an s10 guy
