I purchased new a 1987 Chevy S-10 long bed 4 speed manual that was red and white two tone. It was my first new vehicle that I purchased all on my own when I was 21. That truck was special. Thirty seven years later and looking at this truck makes me happy. Good job.

They were special trucks in 17 years I only had to change the clutch. And the common things! I loved my S-10 blue on the bottom the rest white!

My first vehicle (2010) was a 1987 S10. Reg cab short bed 2.8L 5 speed 4x4. Ohio special with floorboard, rocker and fender arch delete. The bed was held on by one bolt and the tailights lol. I loved that truck and I will buy a nice one like this one someday.

A friend of mine had that exact same truck (84 model, I believe; maybe 83). Same color, bed, and trans. We moved a piano in that stupid thing once. Three of us were in the back holding the piano in -- it was tied down but not real well. Driving down the road, my friend was playing it and we were singing! People rolled down their windows at stop lights and cheered!

That's what's called an "end of life" vehicle. Pee pop bought it and got to run a few errands in it before his doctor and asshole kids told him he was finished driving. I'm just speculating, but that's how it usually goes.

That is absolutely amazing! I mean the leaves in the truck bed didn't rot the steel at all. It wasn't even rusty! But then again, neither were the rotors on the front brakes. And the door cards color wasn't faded at all😮 With no cracks and no real surface dirt that I could see... A little soap and water and they almost look new.. Exactly how long was this truck sitting in the woods? Over the weekend?😊 It did come out sharp looking tho!

I got 422,000 miles original engine 2000 5.3 vortex ,original timing chain Chevy Silverado. Replaced engine with a lower mileage engine even though the original engine was still running. I was afraid of it shitting the bed and leaving me stuck somewhere. I replaced it with a 2005 5.3 and had my specialist replace the timing chain . It had 110,000 original miles. Bought it for $800.00. The reason it lasted so long is regular oil and filter changes, Every 3000 miles, and run detergent gas. Change oil religiously since new. Transmission went at 377,000 miles. My fault, skipped a transmission service for a couple of years,… that neglect cost me $2300. Every year folks, that the formula. Bought the truck for $21,000 n 2001. 24 years of reliable service, looking for 24 more. Pretty cheap for a great truck.

I should have added that in the video. I didn’t even think about it but the original owner had it parked in his garage in the alley behind his house. It was a very tight alley on a hill and a pain to get it out so he didn’t take it out much. He just drove his other vehicle. He then got sick and wasn’t able to drive or take care of his home. The garage got so bad that it needed torn down and the truck just got parked outside and he never drove it again. He was very sad to see the state it was in and even more sad to sell it. I’ve tried contacting him to show him but no luck yet
