Here's the thing: Keeping it stock will be extremely cheap to keep on the road. Parts cost 75% less than used too. As for the leaky engine, they leaked when new. Just poorly designed seals and surfaces. Oil is cheap, so if it isn't leaving puddles, leave it. Put some engine stop leak in it. It works on them. Just use it as a truck. Parts for it are dirt cheap, 75% less now than 20 years ago.

My 1988 Chevy S10 Sport has 48k miles on it, runs like a top

I love the look so I probably would keep it stock.

I've always hated that gauge cluster. My aunt and uncle had one of these with the rare Isuzu diesel.

That's the base of the base level cluster. No coolant gauge. The Upscale cluster had everything but the tach, and the deluxe cluster came with a tach.

bullet proof s10's with isuzu diesels are extremely rare

just cruising through Bradford with no idea you'd be in BC and making car content seriously. Mad respect.

Static drop, a nice set of wheels, DONE! Great little truck. I’ve kept a square body S10 around here to drive for the past 15 years. Love ‘em.

I love how it looks now - so I'd go for something fun/cool with the transmission, maybe an engine swap, but definitely keeping the overall looks. A few well chosen modifications are honestly way better than a bunch of them, on a truck like that.

Sometimes the nicest thing to see is a super clean old stock truck. No one keeps these well kept S10s stock anymore. Maybe re-paint it either same colour or different, repaint "Chevrolet" white and reupholster the interior make it look clean and new but factory. Its you're truck of course, either way would be sick as hell

I was watching the video and then i realized it was Robbie, wow what a change!

Ha I got that paint job on my roof but the rest of my body is all different, I love my s10 I gotta 93 last year of the square body's absolute beautiful machine so easy to work on too mine still has a ways to go but these videos have been helpful in keeping me motivated

Bring this truck to B.C. !!! I know you have a lot going on already but it would be a dope build. I personally think you should clean it up real good and keep it stock considering the mileage but even a crazy build would be cool!

I got my 86 s15 4x4 for $200, but it has 200k miles. Got it running today. So excited

Should re-upholster the bench seat. Only after you choose a color for the outside though so it matches. Shout out from Nova Scotia!

I think I would keep it stock, but hey it's your truck you do what makes you happy.. That may be the best $200 you will ever spend in your life! I was wondering how much you have spent fixing it up?

Do you still have the truck Robbie?

I have one with the 4.3 and a 5 speed and it's a damn near impressive ride with just a custom exhaust yeah we don't need a cat here in FLA a free flowing muffler and it's 2.5 inch all the way to the back it woke up for real when I took the cat off added the exhaust and a cold air intake I know those intakes don't do much of anything but I like it what they did was use the same gear ratio as the the nv 1500 2.2 liter 4 cyl engine in the v6 they used the nv 3500 trans and the same gear ratio in the rear as the 4cyl as I said with the gobs of torque that the 4.3 makes over the 2.2 not to mention the added horsepower like I said I've smoked some mustangs and Camaros and other such things a dude with a 4.6 crown vic he thought was fast he was a whole car length back all thru the gears I'm winding out 3rd at 85 and hitting 4th and she's climbing quick trust me find one and drive it and get on it y'all will be well impressed I think for a small truck other than doing a v8 swap of course and I've seen where guys supercharge or turbo them and get big gains I can hardly keep back tires on this one let it roll back a little bit turn the wheel so it takes the weight off that rear pass tire yeah one wheel peel but put it in second and rev and dump that clutch you'll have to keep it off the rev limiter by foot but that tire in second gear is whipping at like 50 and it runs out a long ways making a long mark and a lotta smoke I just put some slapper bars to stop axle wrap and it's fun as shit

Very nice

Aye a fellow Ontario guy 🤘🏼

I myself have a 1987 Chevy S-10 5 speed manual transmission, 4X4, V6, the current problem im having with it, is that it keeps leaking DOT3 thr the clutch fluid canister, and can't find where its leaking from people have told me its leaking through the transmission seal (where it bolts to engine) but my truck is so dirty and coated in old oil its kinda hard to find exactly where its leaking from...

I’m from grimsby Ontario and I feel like I’ve seen this truck around the Niagara area... where are you from?

I just bought a 82 s10

Yo! I have a '91 S10 RWD with a 2.5L, 4 banger "Iron Duke" that is total garbage... complete with vacuum leaks, exhaust header cracks, an awesome rad leak, electrical and dash are 100% trash, and the exhaust completely fell off on the street on my way to work one day. I went to sand the rear wheel wells on the bed to prep for more proper paint and discovered like a 1/4" thick of bondo and rusted through a previous re-welded patch job, enough bondo to cover a round top screw underneath that appeared to be flush before I started (somebody hid that really well, props to them haha). So, I've been thinking of what to do with mine - and I think I want to swap it with an LQ9 (LS3 2nd gen. I think), keep it RWD, put it on coilovers, wide body, fuel cell, and make it a "drift truck" build. Not sure if that's the best idea considering the front/rear weight ratio is like 70/30 to the front... but people have done it, and maybe to help with the weight in the back - build a rack to secure street wheels/tires in the bed over the rear axle. Minty oldschool stock trucks are nice too though, but... it'd be super cool to watch that series if you went that direction. Drift truck be tight, been watching @gingium (think that's how you spell it) Mazda B2200 drift truck build, and it's pretty dope. Love from Cincinnati OH! #staycommitted

I plan on doing this with an 88 i have my eyes on. i have never owned a vehicle before.

You could keep it stock. Or make it a stroked 3.1 liter with Holley carb. but do whatever because I have an 84' S10 truck. Single cab. So, I wanna see something done to it that crazy depending on what route you decide to go. But Ive been looking for ideas on what to do to my truck so. Ill sub and see what happens

I personally like it clean and functional. I also have a truck (98 Tacoma) and a BRZ, and I think it's great. The BRZ does DD, road trips, clean errands, on-asphalt fun, the truck does weather, camping, mtb, 'dirty' errands, off-road fun. Is the S-10 four wheel drive?

Tbi was fuel injection at its infancy and is really nothing more than an over complicated carburator it squirts fuel and air down the intake in basically the same manner all they did was add a computer and sensors to aid in fuel economy so they say leaning it out in closed loop which idk I've had some pretty big gas hogs that were tbi and had some carbs that yeilded 20 mpg so I only see over complication in my book but as I said I'm old hence being old school .

How to lower the resale value of your vehicle by 90%? Lower it. Lowered vehicles are utter garbage. I've seen far too many S10s ruined by people who lowered the things. Every time I see an S10 that has been lowered I say "Poor S10. The asshole took the balls from ya." But I love my stock 03 S10. Really, we haven't done a whole lot with her. Replaced the trans with a brand new one. New catalytic converter. And a new radiator. She is all good now. Next in the agenda is the paint. I'd go in the opposite direction. Raise that baby up.
