yep you read it right.... my brothers s10 4 door jimmy was stolen by some wannabe gang members that parked it on the train tracks and watched it get slammed. The kids I'm betting were some punk little 16 and 12 year olds that have been steeling a lot of cars in the area. Makes me want to set a rig for bait and beat the living hell out of em then call the cops. We just got done torching the motor, rearend, tcase, and tranny out and we also got the the efi stuff off it. The rearend has posi so we're hoping it'll be worth some money.
How much do you think we can get off the parts and where is the best place to sell em?
The tranny is a rebuilt 700r but the bellhousing is completly sheered off...could we sell the guts of it?
Motor is a 4.3 with about 150k on it,
tcase is a 231 c (not sure the tag was pretty worn)
rearend is a 10 bolt posi.
here's some pics of the teardown.
He works at a fab shop too and his boss let us borry a torch and a forklift... even if he doesn't get anything for the parts we had fun torching the thing up. Goes alot faster when you can cut instead of wrench.

notice the frame... they said it was about 40 yards from where it got hit. The towtruck driver decided to be a slimeball about it and said he took 7 hours to get it off the tracks. Which resulted in a 700 dollar bill.

This thing was not in the best of shape but it was one of the family, it had been rolled jumped, and just plain romped on and put back together again. we put a whole new body shell on it.
They spraypainted n.d.n., spit river, and a big backwards (dumbasses) swatstica on the hood. Supposedly n.d.n. is a gang... I'm think its stands for northstate douchebags nazis.
He even heard it fire up when it got stolen.
Of course this happens 3 days after he finds out hes havin a baby...
