The motorcar disease - AKA S10 sickness

[Mad Max]

Here's some pics of the wierd stuff I have, waiting to be road terrors. Like when I have a few extra minutes...:laugh4:
http://www.s10racer.com/board/album.php?albumid=94
The 70 MG has a 215 Buick aluminum V8 with a muncie M22
The 78 Toyota Celica has a Buick aluminum V8 with an 85 T5 out of a Z28
The 68 Mustang California Special (Ford :nono: ) is getting a fresh 428 CJ and has a top loader 4 in it. It currently has a hot 302 in it - 13.2 1/4 - just not quick enough
The white car is an Isuzu Gemini ( Buick Opel, Isuzu I mark) very rare in this country. I am going to put a buick aluminum V8 / T5 in it.
The red 68 Buick GS 400 (original), needs some clean up body work and paint. Runs well. #*@*$^ racoons got into it and tore up the headliner. Dammit.
And I have too many S10s. The red '82 has a 383 srtoker in it with a TH 350. I'm waiting for the rear end to hatch. I definately don't run slicks. Best time is 12.45 with the tires spinning. It has a 3.73. gov lock posi in it - junk. Click click - BOOM.
The turquoise truck is a ' 92 5 speed with an Iron Puke in it. It does run super and has frosty a/c. My former GF named it the Barbie truck to go with my old turqoise Sporster. - Boo. :sick2:
The dark blue '91 has a 3.4 '95 Camaro 60* V6 in it with a 5 speed. I'm supercharging it, I installed a 4.10 posi etc. I'll do a full build thread on it soon.
The last S10 is an '85 4x4 redneck rig. Lifted 3 inches, 31s, roll bar, nurfs, brush bar, 2.8 wheezer V6 with headers, 4 barrel 390 CFM Holley, big music etc. I'm planning on putting a Caddy 4.9 V8 in it. Direct bolt in with mount changes. This is what I use to tow stuff. And yes, that is an S10 trailer.... Sick, sick, sick.
Ok. enough of this crap.

Damn, I wish that's all I have. Wanna be bored?? How about an '88 Dodge Dakota with a stock 350 Olds that runs a 15 flat? I'll post more pics later. A '70 Chev C10 PU with a 250 CID 6, 4 barrel, 4 speed, headers, double pipes, 3.73 posi, '79 Firechicken with hot 403 Olds, Turbo 350, 3.42 posi - 12.92 1/4 mile, should I bore you anymore? I have TONS more toys. It's a sickness. I live in the country, so space is nooooo prob. I also have a dealer tag. Yo. :bling: If you guys aren't bored, I'll pic you to death. I also have some rice cars and bikes.... and lots more vehicles. S10s caught my attention and I keep running into deals I can't pass up. :knife:

Nice weird collection! Another board I'm on has a few of those Opels, (same drivetrain that's stock in the LUV's) You can't hide money...

[Mad Max]

Nice collection Mike. I also have a 67 Chevy stepside (all rotted) that I use to go to the dump, a '72 leaf spring rear heavy 3/4 ton which I have all new parts for (cab, fenders, etc) , a 79 Chevy Nova with a '65 Buick 300 in it, it gets 23 MPG hiway, an '84 Volvo oiler (diesel) wagon that is perfect, and 2 Olds Calais 4.3 diesel cars. I am planning to do a V6 diesel conversion with a 5 speed in one of my S10s. 40 to 45 MPG maybe? Now... a little time to do all of this. :evil2:

I've been looking for an early LUV, like a '72. I'm currently snooping out an '88 Mazda pickup with a rotary RX 7 13 B already installed. I've seen some of those really scream when I lived in Puerto Rico. Like 9 second 1/4s.
It's really hard to find any early LUV trucks any more.

Man.. could you imagine if we lived close to each other?

Wanna sell the black 2 door hatchback?

I've had the car since 1977. It's sort of attached to me but I haven't driven it for a bag load of years - mostly cause I live in hotels. When I finally get some time off...
Sorry, I don't want to sell it - yet.

I know I'd never get any work done other than cars n trucks. I'd probably get fat as hell from drinking too much beer - you live in the torch zone - way hot weather = lots of beer. :10:

[Diabolical]

OMG!! Thats why I'm gaining so much weight!! ..lol
Good Bass fishing down here too ;)
