Yes maybe the next owner will be just as timid and need a "driver".

He does want a lot, we'll see what happens, as it seems that sometimes crazy people pay waaaaaay too much for stuff on ebay, and other times they won't pay anything. I'd rather see it sell and go far away then watch it deteriorate as a driver around here.

I have seen some real turd buckets on ebay that sell for $$$ and his at least looks nice under the hood and such. Although, as we have seen before, even the NICEST looking ones under the hood (certain truck comes to mind) have trouble selling on ebay when turds are selling for more.

I agree, the white S-10 was the cleanest. It looked a lot better with the 20's though. Jesse

I wasn't trying to get a whole thing going about the truck, but you know as well as I do Wally that if I picked the engine shots of the first 10 S10s I saw on ebay right now and a shot of Elecs that one would be the nicest, very easily. I was just stating that there are a lot of horrible turd V8 s-10s out there.

I have seen quite a few S-10's sell for ridiculous amounts of cash that weren't half the vehicle that white S-10 was. It was by no means perfect, and lets face it, S-10's with V-8's are as common as fat chicks eating Twinkies. But, that was a nice truck. I still think that was a $10K truck with all the stereo stuff in it. I guess it's in Texas now??? Jesse

It wen't for what it was worth which was not much, stuff is only worth as much as some one will pay. Lets face it even though it was a fancy s-10 it was still a s-10 and reflected it's true value, Now had I spent the money on a classic it would have been worth much more.
It went on ebay again and now lives in texas it was traded for a 93 cobra and now is wrecked and half parted. Good riddance
I would rather push my 94 than have ever driven that truck again, but my 94 starts all the time so that is not a issue. Carbs and big cams are not for me.

(Swoosh)<------------ Me closing the book on this thread as I don't want to read anymore of this doo doo talk. I don't like being angry and acting like a idiot, I am the bigger person now adays.
Peace out old friend

Sorry about not stopping by last night ben I fell asleep at 9:30 I will give you a call tonight.
