I'll check around, I'm going to a couple salvage yards this week and next.

 

I found one way down in FL, but it was in pretty bad shape and the guy wanted $450. The wheel well and floor would need to be delt with.

 

Does look a little rough, I wonder what the bottoms of the side cabinets look like?

 

I'm not sure, but I see full-size beds in better shape for $500, so I'm not willing to pay that much for it

 

I bet those smaller utility bodies are scarce though.

 

They are. I've only seen 4 and 3 were attached to the trucks for sale 1 was actually a 2011 Tacoma years ago. I still had the TJ at the time.

I've wondered if a mid 90's full-size would work. I know my truck is damn near the same size as my dad's 90 1500(as far as width)

 

Lots of measurements and checking out the mounting points.

 

As of now, it's more of just a "daydream". Although, if I could pick one up for a few hundo…….I'd probably grab it and just store it up at my folks' until I can figure out something

 

Sounds like a good plan.

I'm slowly getting the parts for the 350 rebuild. Also need to find a transmission and rear end.

 

Post up a pic of the S10

 

I will tomorrow. Have to take some.

 

Is it gonna be a drag, street, or parts getter type?

 

Street, I'm thinking of 4 linking the rear, I'll see after it's running how much money I have left.

 

I kinda dig the little street trucks. There's a thread here for the 5 lug Tacoma ones. There's some really nice ones in that thread.

How's the camper search been? Did you see where Alan just got one? I haven't seen him around here in a long time. This was on fb.

Here's his

 

That's a good size camper.

 

It seems so. I haven't talked with him, just saw the pics. Looks like he might need to do something with the rear suspension, looks a little squatted.

 

Airbags.

 

He talked about one for years. Glad he finally grabbed one. I know he'll definitely put it to use.

 

His kids are old enough now to to enjoy camping also.
