I can try and get some pics this weekend, I don't have any of the underside on my laptop right now. I originally cut the fenders out to have it lay frame, but after I z'ed the rear of the frame I liked the nose-high aired-out look so I just left the front suspension at stock height.

here's a whole s10 thread: http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=38668&hl=

My 1:1, 99 sonoma 4.3 auto. Smokey caramel metallic paint, Bravada front bumper, ss street scene mirrors, 18in ridler 695's, De-badged and de-striped, cut bump stops, leather/power seat swap. Hoping to get the full zq8 suspension package on it here soon(front coils, leaf springs, shocks, and front/rear sway bars) and also tint the windows, clear headlights, smoked tails and a magnaflow exhaust.

Oooooh I love me some S-Series trucks! I dig the pics, 1:1s and models. I've got a few planned for the hobby bench but like Jared said, my full scale needs some attention this spring. MN weather had been teasing us these past two months.

Jared, I just went through that thread that you linked, I was thinking about that when I saw this one but couldn't remember how long ago it was. Your truck has come a long way from that first pic you posted, looking good!

2000 Silverado K1500 Crew Cab 4x4: Two Silvo's and a Caddy Died in the process of making this conversion. Still in Progress.

1990 Silverado C1500 Flareside. 1st Reissue, modded the rear bed to make it more like a Step Side. Might strip and repaint.

Finally a Topic after my own heart!! Still angry GM killed off the Sonoma and S-10. Personally i think the Colorado and Canyon are ugly boooooooooooooooo. Awesome models everyone!!!

i agree i owned a silveradoss after my s10 vortec then motor swap and i loved the s10 more when all said and done for gas milage and speed plus my s10 swap was a 5 speed and more fun i agree with you i dont like the colorado except for one i saw in sport truck mag with a ls1 swap and caltech bars nitrious all made to be stock apperence

check this colorado out so sweet

He he, some shameless promotion of my favorite S-10, mine!

Here she is clean,

but she's much more fun when getting dirty!

I have a kit and plans for an exaggerated version of my truck but it's on the back burner right now.
