Default My New Ride

I got a new 2000 Chevy S-10.
Hopefully I can do an LS1/V-8 Swap in a little while.

For now it's my Daily Driver.

Clean base for a project.
Had a friend with one 6 years back, he flipped it. Always was doing revere burnouts and such, was his first stick vehicle, and it was thoroughly abused, he drove it for a while with the cab smashed in after his incident.

So true^
It's ok though. I am just going to save up and drive slow for a while. It shall be worth it when it gets the V-8 in the future.

Thanks guys
