i told you guys i would be getting a replacement for the GP. here's the first one. the new Daily Beater. dont worry, toy is coming, this weekend just didnt work out how i had planned. anyway, on to the beater!
it's an 89 S15
4.3 vortec
4x4
auto
nice tool box in the back
it's a little rough, but not bad for $900
i've been wanting a daily beater for a while. decided i had to get one when i got rid of the GTP. now i do! yay beaters

it's not how fast you go, it's how you get there that counts.
ZZP XP cam, 1.6 rockers, 105# springs, speedbuilt FWI, 3.3" modular pulley, TOG headers,
3" exhaust, flomatched injectors
'97 GTP 14.06@100.6mph pre cam w/ 3.5" pulley, I/E
That's actually a decent truck, don't know if i would use it as a beater lol. Definately got your moneys worth.
passenger side is the good side. drivers side cab corner is rusty, small hole. not gone yet. small rust spot on the door. nothing terrible. drives great (though it could probably use a tune up. cap, rotor, plugs, etc) and by beater, i mean the vehicle i use for daily driving and winter driving. you'll know why i call it my beater in a week or two

i always thought the s15 was the bigger of the 2? nice truck tho def worth 900. I need to get a truck alot easier to haul stuff in lol.
GMC = S-15
Chevrolet = S-10
Just a rebrand. Different gas tank capacities were available for both.
whose caddy in the garage?
look up parts for it. when you order 4x4 items you gotta order for model T15 lol.
and yeah thats 89 cuz it doesn't have the chrome wrap around grill
that's the fiance's caddy in the garage. i eventually plan to get a nice CTS to go with the SRX in the garage. but until im rich, the truck will have to do as the DD.
note: spark plugs in this thing SUCK
