Little update on Gallo’s shovel bound for CA. Rear fender is from @lowbrowcustoms and we made a new taillight out of an old Harley dual filament signal as a brake light. Fortunately his sissybar is stainless (that we made a few years ago) and that Harley signal happens to nestle in that curve just right. Next up is a plate mount and we’ll be able to strip the bike for paint and head work in the motor. This bike will be hammering the streets of Long Beach in no time.

FOR SALE! 1991 S10 Blazer with Tahoe package. 4.3 V6. 2wd. Power windows (new regulators) power locks. Truck originally came from Florida, then to Connecticut, then to me. It's been my daily for the past 5 years. Body is in really nice shape, the rust is just starting to pop in a few spots near the bottom corners. Floors are solid. New headliner with later model blazer ceiling console. Dash is cracked but I have a spare with no cracks. Interior is in great shape! 2" receiver in rear, both trailer plugs work. Truck is lowered with a Belltech Lowering kit. Heat works great, AC does not. CD and Radio work. It needs tires, alignment, and exhaust (If I can get to them I will fix them) Smokes a little on startup randomly. Check engine light comes on randomly. It needs a paint job. The PO replaced the rear gate and resprayed the gate and driver side of the truck. Not sure why he didn't just spray the whole truck. Comes with extra hood, original wheels, oem clutch pedal set up. I had intentions of doing a v8/manual trans swap. Extra dash that is not cracked. Spare ignition key and tumbler for column. $5,000 or B/O. May consider trades. Looking for something larger, 4x4, extended cab short bed. If interested shoot me a DM.

Another one finished and ready to go back home. “Hemi” (short for “hemorrhoid” as the owner affectionately calls it due to all the problems that kept coming back with this bike.) A lot of weird issues too. I cast out all the electrical gremlins and took care of some tuning issues. Runs great and rides like a cloud! All signals and idiot lights are working again. Onto the next one!
