Full Build: Slamming A Stock '95 Chevy S-10 Into A Throwback Mini Truck

[@Washington5057]

I didn't read through all the comments, but mini truck customizing was really taking off in the late '70's and mid 1980's. They were sufer/skater mobiles getting guys to the beaches and skate parks. I was a part of that scene. Mazda/Ford Courier, Isuzu/Chevy Luv and of course, Datsun and Toyo's were the chosen. Rangers and S10's were too new for most kids to afford then. I had a 1980 Ford Courier with a 10B rotary. Tons of guys "bed danced" their beds with speakers built in. Good times!

[@dni_g3533]

Love the old school minis like that, hopefully I can start on building a Z rack for my 83' Nissan 720 when I graduate school!

Missed a few things, clear corner lights, clear tails, street scene sport mirrors, color matched handles, and where is all the billet interior pieces and the tow ball to throw sparks

So glad to see a slight resurgence in the mini truck scene 💯 I used to have a 95' Splash Ranger which was lowered, custom paint and dropped a 5.0 V8 in it 🤙🏼 mini truckin' is so fun! ❤️

1984 GMC S-15 4X4 GYPSY PACKAGE INTERIOR. I ordered and got it in Nov. 1983. Over 500,000.00 miles on it. Same 5 speed tranny. Replaced engine in 1992. Racing blew up original 2.8L. Limited slip rear end. Still very strong and doesn't smoke. Oil changes regularly make the difference. I'm the original owner.

[@karaayers2867]

I had a 95 s10 with the same wheels I bagged in high school. Painted it pastel blue and drove it to over 300k miles. Eventually I upgraded to some 20s, was a great truck.

I used to have a square body 92. it was a dam good truck. had the same burgundy interior lmao. 2.8 v6 manual.

[@EricErnst]

I have an 86 s10. It came as a 4cyl 5 speed, but I swapped in a built 2.8L from my 83 gmc s15. Ported big-valve heads. Edelbrock intake. 390cfm 4bbl carb. Hedman headers. Edelbrock cam. Roller rockers. 4.10 gears with a lunchbox locker and 38.5x14.50R15 tires out back. 2.5" body lift. 3" lift spindles up front with 31x10.50R15s up front. Edelbrock shocks from like 20 years ago at all 4 corners. She's a fun little truck. It's only 2wd but the bedsides sit as high as my k2500 pickup on 33s. I'm not a big fan of lowering trucks but I get it. The s10 platform is a lot of fun.

The thing about after building a Minitruck are the of offers from guys that to use to have a minitruck back in their day, like with my 3" dropped 2001 Sonoma SLS that I bought stock in 2001, I've had a dozen offers to buy mine.

I think an AWD from a 4X4 conversion would be nice. Lowered, but not slammed. And more of a sport/track truck. With a manual would be fun.

[@jehiahglos6861]

S10 comes with leaf spring under axle . Come on guys full size needs flip kit. Mini trucks are just blocks till u need air or hydro.

[@Notasheepleandneverwillbe]

My Ranger wouldn't be the best starting point . Because even though it's a 2 wheel drive , it's a Edge model . And they are the same height as the 4 wheel drive , with the same torsion bar suspension . If I had a regular one it would be way easier to lower it .

[@Ellington_Industrial_Arts]

So go to a pick-a-part and pull the i-beams and steering knuckles out of a base model. You can't be more than $200 in parts to swap it. Rear drop is just a simple axle flip to lower it at least 4"

One man’s trash is another man’s treasure. I’m not a fan of mini trucks either, but the nice thing about the hobby is that there are so many different ways to take a build. Not everyone is going to love it, as long as you are happy with your project, nobody else matters.

[@thecarguy2470]

@@eugenewilliampruski3755 I've seen tasteful mini truck builds. The S10 is a dime a dozen. They spent probably 50k on that truck. I've seen much better than purple rain barely being 15k. It's a lost investment that they probably didn't pay for anyway. In the end. It's just another slammed s10. There are over 100,000 in one S10 group alone with one done like and often better then this one and can still be used as daily truck..

[@eugenewilliampruski3755]

@@thecarguy2470 I don’t think the idea was to build a daily driver. It’s a TV show, they are trying to get people to watch. Are there better builds out there? Obviously yes. All I was saying is that everyone has different tastes, you may not like what they did but someone else might. Isn’t the whole idea of the hobby to do what you can with what you have available? Unless you are doing it with the intention of selling for a profit, build what you want and to hell with anyone else’s opinion. There are too many people that are way to “judgey” about other people’s work. In my experience the most judgey people are usually the last people who should be criticizing other people’s work. I have seen people going around saying “I would have done this or that differently” and when you see their build it won’t even pass a road safety inspection. Just my 2 cents.
