Wyoming S10 thing story - The End.

Thought might share some of my build here since have been a member since 2001.
First 4x4 was a 86 shortbox:

(I found that pic just for you, Drey. Remember when we all had those signature pics back in the day?)

Then some lift and 35s and made "pretty":

Then some 40s and half doors:

Then gutted and cut up some:

Then cut up some more:

Then decided I wanted a more enclosed cab for wyoming wheeling and that the pickup frame sucked to base a tuber off of:

Picked up this 71 k5 for $50 and started to put my goody into it:

At first was gonna put some 3/4ton and 40 MTRs I picked up cheap in it and keep my tons and 40 TSLs for the tube project:

But decided to put tons and in it afterall:

Changed color and built some tube stuff for it:

And got some 43 SXs and H1s:

Then started playing in rocks harder and decided that it was too huge so sold the body and tubework:

Picked up this 97 GMC Sonoma for $600 and sold the drivetrain and made my money back:

Then took this:

And started on this:

Confuse potential drivers:

Fit a 454:

And checked clearances:

And some night lights:

[yellowK20]

Nice!!

 

[76zimmer]

that is a badass truck...and has a great driver as well. VERY nicely done Matt.

Matt what headers are these that they needed to be "adjusted" to fit?

All i can say is wow...im glad you brought this build to ck5, because honestly pirate is just well....poopy. i love the look of this rig and gives me insperation to get my rump off the couch and work on my junk.

 

[Smokinthehippies]

And wheeled it a bunch:

that video clip is proabably one of my favorite wheeling shots.... the pucker factor is high with this one.

Nice rig Matt. I hope to see it in action one day...

Hopefully BB12

I think they were jsut some cheapos from summit that have been through a few different trucks and not-so-good motor mounts. I now have the sweet motor mounts Kert makes and also went back to manifolds.

Nice rig Matt. I hope to see it in action one day...

Hopefully BB12

I'll plan on it
