theres tons more photos of it on facebook under "Purevil Concepts" from the first day i bought it to now.   The silver s10 was completely painted with spray paint cans! The wheels are z06 rims..the rears are 18x10.5 and the fronts are 17x9.5. Looking to put a 4-link in the rear with a custom Currie rear end. And still trying to get those 13' rotors on the front and 12's on the back.

have done a couple things since last time i was here. Added air ducts to the air damn, for now they dont go anywhere..hopping brake ducts. Also i finished smoothing out the fender flares, and added the bravada grille, and a flush mount bed cover, which was on my other truck...going to try and have it painted by the end of next month...fingers crossed!

Sorry if this sounds negative, it's not my truck and I'm not trying to speak down on it, but I don't really like it.

One thing I would do if it were mine is flip the mesh on the air dam around so that it doesn't overlap the cutout, so you only see the mesh where the hole is. Idk, not my style. Good work though! What size spacers are you running with those wheels?

added a rear sway bar i found at the local junkyard on a v8 s10. Picked it up for  $15 and bought some new bushings for  $20..for a grand total of $35 spent for a sway bar. Havent really driven it since i put it on so havent really noticed a difference yet. I forgot to check if the truck at the yard had a front sway bar gonn ago back on sunday and check.

Yes they do...so far i have seen four, three trucks and one blazer, but 3/4 of them have been a total loss. Unrepairable. And most of the ones i have seen have been piss poor installs of the v8. Ill have to take some pics next time i am there.

Your truck looks mean!  I'm really digging the air vents on the airdam.  Are those completely fabbed up or were some of the parts purchased?  I really want to copy what you've done, if you don't mind.  Any help would be appreciated.  Keep us updated on the progress.
93 Sonoma RCSB, 2.8 w/bolt on's.  ZQ8 leafs and rear bar, 3" blocks, ZQ8 Frame brace.   2" DJM Coils, UB Machine uppers, pro-forged tall ball joints, billet tie-rod adjusters, 32mm blazer front bar,  KYB GR2 shocks all around, trans-am steering box, Core performance short throw shifter.

been gone for awhile. since then some lady hit the back of my truck and insurance totaled it out. But i was given the chance to buy it back which i did. The rear driver axle was bent and the housing was also bent, so i decided to put disc in the rear of off a 98 blazer. Its a direct bolt in except for the ebrake cable which i havent touch yet. Didnt have to touch the brake booster or anything. Picked up the complete rear end for $280. Still gotta go back for the bigger sway bar. Ill mess with it next week.
