I have "owned" about 4 or 5 vehicles, but none in my name lol. My tent trailer is the only thing in my name at the moment lol. But it's cheaper on insurance this way for now. I'll probably be getting my own in the next year.

the zr2 I was looking at for 1000,is marked as sold. Not sure if it's because I sent him the message saying I'm planning on being there next weekend for it, or if someone showed up and snatched it up. But either way, theres a few more on the list, a new one came on today: 03 zr2 with 176km on it. It's a couple hr drive from me, but I'm willing if the price and km are right.

 

Damn but ya I get how that is I went to look at a blazer and they were selling it as I got there had someone else come to but I had a few on my list and the one I have now I ended up driving out of town about 40+ minutes to get it from an old lady who got remarried and didn’t need the second vehicle. Think I got lucky cause it has a ton of good features like 373 gearing and g80 stock plus was taken care of

 

I’ve had a bunch of other trucks and car but always drove with a learners license so never bothered to put much work into them incase got pulled over and impounded.

 

I would love to get my hands on a zr5 s10 to build up

 

I've been trying to find one, as the 4 door would be ideal for me. But every 4 door s10 so far has been over 310xxx and needs more work then the owner is willing to let it go for lol. They know the rarity of the 4 door s10s...

 

..i thought 2Drs were the rare ones? i've basically never seen a 2 door down here in my part of florida. but many many 4 doors, S10 trucks, etc. Some S15/Sonomas are still in use by my county for utility

 

Around here, theres maybe 1 4 door s10 for every 15-30 2 or 3 door s10s.

I've been finding so many 2 doors, but not as many 3 door 4x4s.

 

i was talking about blazers but rereading my post i made it seem like i was talking about just S10 trucks lol.

 

Water pump all done.

a few vacuum hoses needed to be replaced for it to stop overheating...

but she now sits cooler then she has ever sat...

another job down.

oh and I got my rear door to open again! The child lock was screwing up the workings, with some wd40, and some good fingering... shes all lubed up and moving freely again!

edit:

I should say it was when I finally swapped out a vacuum hose that was collapsing, that it stopped over heating and fluid went thru the engine without a problem...

 

Went out for lunch at work, was pulling back in and lost my brakes... didnt see any fluid. But after work upon further inspection, I found this...


lost the caliper bolts and 1 brake pad... should be able to put the piston back into the caliper as long as its clean. That'll be after work tomorrow.
