Yes. My cousin found a S10 sitting on the side of the road for a few years and is gonna see how much the guy would take for the lowering kit, it has about a 4" drop on it.

Oh gosh yes, it's awful right now! But the weather is also awful, rain all week long through the weekend. :/

It's much to humid to do any work on the truck, 80f with 90% humidity so I can't paint, and I don't wanna be out in that heat. But I took a few pictures of some things that need bodywork.






I'm also having trouble getting the lights off so I can remove the grill. I watched a video and he said there are clips, but I don't see clips I only see some weird star-shaped screw things which I've stripped already. :/

The star shaped screws should be the adjusters for the headlights.

90% humid weather really puts a halt on any painting I was planning for today, and this weather is going to last all week. I did manage to paint the window cranks today because I can paint them inside.

I'm really itching to get to work....







Ignore the ugly floor mats, they are not staying.
