Shooting for March, over the winter I'm going to build a new harness, rebuild the engine, add a few hop-up parts, and send it.

MORE PICS....because I dragged out the dslr last weekend before I got trashed. Annnnnd the new LEDs Pictures really over exposed the red so it looks a lot brighter than it really is. A nice subtle red glow.. brighter than stock, but not all up in your face.

For a 25 year old truck yeah, it's pretty clean... Though compared to most, it's not that great. Found it on W. Broad a few days before my S10 got stolen 😂 was a decent price for really clean S-series....that also happened to be kind of a rarity. Much sport, very aggressive, wow, so 90s lol Thinking about restitching the shifter knob and steering wheel with a red thread to kind of help the interior match 😂

Upcoming purchases are a aftermarket tonnaeu cover Custom "Sonoma GT" lloyd floor mats And LEDs to replace all the stock incandescent bulbs. Just for you. And I forgot to post this one I'll break out the dslr and take good pictures of everything this weekend if it's nice outside.

My new project/daily driver. Always start a thread with picture right? So say hello to Sonoma GT #0070 Condition I bought it in was 100% stock save for 235 tires. Had a few small issues with electronics not working. There is a very small amount of rust on the bottom inside lip of the fenders, one spot on the firewall, on the door seams, and on the rear of the bed at the tailgate and behind the lights. everything can/will be sanded down and fixed, no holes! Cosmetically, the paint is flaking, there are a few dings in the driver door, the door panels have small imperfections, both bumper supports look bent but may be fixable, and there is a melted spot on the center console... She is complete save for the factory tonneau cover, I have the front/side rails, but no bows, vinyl, or rear rail. REALLY just small things wrong.. I realize this is an incredibly rare truck with only 806 being made, and only 101 of those in this color combo.. BUT I'm not a purist, so I will restore the body keeping the original colors and scheme. the only cosmetic mod will be using my Verde Parallax wheels from my previous S10. But she will be getting LS swapped, driving with the 4.3 for the last few months this thing is GUTLESS compared to my old 5.3 lol. So for the swap, I'll be reusing my 5.3/4l60e and over the winter I will be rebuilding it with forged internals, new cam, etc. goal is a modest 400hp. The swap will be to the best of my capabilities, not the ghetto shit I had going on in the S10, I want this to look as stock as possible so just for the aesthetic I'm switching to a BBK SSI intake manifold which I'm going to try and fit the stock 4.3 CPI vortec "cover" onto it. Other mods that are still planned for the SGT: CTSV front brakes (gotta fill up those 19" wheels) Astrovan Hydroboost 3"or 3½" stainless exhaust factory style/exit "new" 8.8 rear axle, with rebuilt diff. Really late making this thread, but since I bought it in July I have done: Replaced the front suspension with everything I JUST INSTALLED IN THE S10 and that was a PITA, but the factory original Delco/bilstein shocks still worked after 25 years. Installed a pioneer MVH-S501BS, SiriusXM tuner and Pioneer A-series speakers (also out of the S10) Next is a modest amp/sub Swapped over the Autopal E-code lights from the S10. pulled the front bumper off and hammered out the dents in the aluminum support and straightened it up on the truck. Replaced all the clapped out 25 year old body mounts with poly mounts, except the front/driver side cab mount that the bolt is just spinning. Fixed all little issues. like the power wire to the drivers lock switch was broken so it didn't work, the passenger window did not roll down because the mount piece was twisted and binding in the door. And obviously did a tune-up and oil change *twice

Honestly didn't even know that.

Crinkle bent would be fine too, mandrel is just a first choice because it looks good. Can stainless be crinkle bent?

Looking for a shop that can do a 3" mandrel bent stainless "cat back" on my Sonoma. Nothing super fancy, want it to follow the stock path/exit. And I'll eventually need them to make a 3" ypipe when I put the LS in it.. Inb4 anyone says mad hatter.. I took my S10 there with a kit I just wanted them to install and they basically told me GFY.

Awesome, thanks guys

looking for some place to get the seat covers "freshened up" in my Sonoma GT. Really just want the vinyl piping replaced as there are a few cracks in it and would like to have the Sonoma GT logo embroidered into the headrest, like the Syclone and Typhoon.

dude that dash is sick. so much better looking than the factory vette digidash

Bahhh, I'll be at slice having delightful sangrias lol

I can assure you it is not.... Though if I get drunk enough, it may be used as one on some poor soul on the 25th 😂 Jkjkjk Sweeeeet! I'm excited to see how these turn out

I really need to get one myself. But I need one that has a decently large bed. Would be worth it just to make stupid little props for my friends and myself.

Dude for real you you are an MVP right now 👍 I would have made them myself but convention center doesn't allow metal props of any kind.

Prop as in stage prop..

I need a small prop printed within the next two weeks. Thingiverse has the file, I just do not have access to a printer, nor do I know anyone that does *broke people problems* Willing to pay for materials used and time.

Ordered these to use with my Verde wheels but I guess something got messed up in the ordering and I got spacers not adapters. They are brand new from Motorsport tech. Adapter - Hub & Wheel Centric 36mm 5x4.75 70.3 to 5x4.75 74.1 1/2" Studs with 20 12x1.5 Lugs only have TWO of these spacers since I was using a Ford 8.8 and only needed these for the front. They SHOULD work on some GM cars going to Vette wheels but I'm not sure. I know the s-series went to 70.3 in 1994 I paid $70 each, never used.. Asking $100

So, many of you probably do not know.. I'm a novice photographer. And I am working on my first project which I will need a Victorian style bathroom to shoot in... Weird I know right. I know someone posted a house for sale awhile ago in Victorian village that would have been perfect. So in short if anyone has a house or know someone that would be willing to let me use their bathroom for an hour or 2 tops. God that sounds sketchy...I really have no idea where to look or how to go about this other than asking around 😓

OH MY GOD that has got to be embarrassing...

I'd say the best way to do it would be sand it. any chemicals that would remove the clear would probably melt the plastic.

ohhh gotcha, that's the "old" store, iirc they used to have meets like every week back in 2013. There is a store that just opened a few weeks ago closer to the casino and it's open 24hrs, but their parking lot looks like a bomb range lol

the new one that is open 24 hours?

Old Circuit city building is supposed to be the meet spot tonight at 10pm... We've come back to retrying the old meet spots I guess lol
