Vehicle Description
This 1985 Chevrolet S-10 is more than just a lightweight truck with
a 650 hp V8. It can almost go undetected as a cool little two-tone
pickup, but if anyone takes a second glance, they'll see the
bulging hood and huge rear tires that all announce that you're
worthy of the street and dragstrip.
Park this S-10 among the big boys at the next cruise-in and see
what happens. The sharp two-tone black and silver gives this truck
a timeless look of quality. The chrome front bumper, a bright stock
grille, and a tonneau over the bed are all part of a well-respected
pickup package. However, few people are going to really want to
talk about the paint and body. That big power bulge of the 3-inch
cowl hood is an instant giveaway that you're bringing some serious
muscle. And while the polished alloys neatly tuck into the
bodywork, we can all see how deep they run inside the bed to
deliver massive rear rubber for where the power meets the
pavement.
Inside are the right stock pieces for a for a truck that's more
than just a pure track machine. You get high-back bucket seats
covered in a comfy velour. There are nice features like power
windows, power locks, and an AM/FM/cassette stereo. But this is a
street machine, and so there are also the right performance
upgrades. The Grant GT sports steering wheel is mounted on a tilt
column. There are the right auxiliary readouts cleanly mounted. And
we know you spotted the large AutoMeter Sport-Comp tach with shift
light that's prominently mounted in the center. It goes
particularly well with the B&M shifter.
Underneath the hood is some serious power. The clean and means
setup includes polished valve covers that announce this is a
massive 496 cubic-inch stroker V8. It has all the right go-fast
goodies, like aluminum heads, roller rockers, an Edelbrock
Performer intake, and a large QFT 850 CFM four-barrel carburetor.
There are also the right supporting components, like the MSD
ignition, steel-braided lines, and an aluminum radiator. The full
package is estimated to make 650 horsepower, and the thunder from
the dual exhaust really lets everyone know it. The strong TH400
three-speed has a reverse manual valve body to make sure you have
complete control over this monster motor. This feeds a stout Ford
9-inch Detroit Locker rear end. The final step in this traction
package is the set of extra wide Mickey Thompson rubber. These
grippy and expensive tires working with the reinforced four-link
rear end to keep you stuck to the ground like super glue. The total
package is an extreme drag machine, but you can still hang a
license plate on it. There are even features like power steering
and four-wheel power disc brakes. That means you don't have to just
trailer this one to the strip, and instead you can easily spend
your Saturday nights cruising the streets for prey.
Complete with build receipts and restoration photos, here's a
pickup that's not for the faint of heart. This is an amazing amount
of power for a very affordable price. The first one here gets to be
the new king of the streets. Call today!!!
