This is my daily driver and was a mid-life crisis purchase and it's not fitting my needs anymore. I'm putting up for sale at loss. I would also be willing to trade it for a small/midsized pickup truck of similar value.

It drives surprisingly well on the roads and freeways in spite of the heavy duty suspension upgrades. I have been driving between Macon and Atlanta the last several months on the freeway. It cruises nicely at 70mph at around 2,500 rpm. I've had it to 80+ with no issue.

Here's what you get;
The drive train is out of a Chevy S-10 pickup, including automatic transmission. It's had allot of other expensive upgrades too.
-Chevy Vortex V6 with 4 speed electronic transmission (the computer is mounted in glove box)
-Saginaw Power Steering
-Over-sized Aluminum Radiator
-Old Man Emu Suspension Lift, Shocks, and spring skid plates
-Wilwood front disc brake conversion (This kit alone was $800)
-Fuel Tank relocated to back instead of under passenger seat
-Advanced Adapters Transfer case adapter
-Lots of tread left on the 33" tires

It also has..
-New Starter
-New battery (pict shows old one)
-New brake lines
-New fuel pump

The old heater core and blower are out. I was planning on putting the generic heater Summit Racing Sells this fall. There is plenty of room under the dash for it.

I have collected parts for it along the way as well, which I will include
-Warn front locking hub kit (Not sure what brand the ones on it now are)
-New back brake shoes/parts
-Orig side mirrors

CASH or TRADE for small/midsized pickup only!

The previous owner did the engine swap. According to him, it was rebuilt when it was put in.

My odometer shows 21,000 miles right now.

It runs strong, no smoke, doesn't loose oil..etc.

On long highway drives I've gotten 17mpg. Around town I average 13mpg.
