  • This 2001 Chevrolet s10, owned by my friend Jacob McConnell, has lived a rough life as a beater work truck until today! In this video, we catalog the simple process of bringing this pickup back to life cosmetically. $900 in parts later and this truck is looking great! Thanks for watching everyone.

    Hey mate, there's no shame in a bit of body filler, fibreglass , JB weld, pu sealants or anything like that.
    They get a bad rap but at the end of the day they're just useful products, tools at your disposal.
    You did the best you could there with what you had available. Good on you

    All in all a hell of an improvement.
    3 tiny things that I think would help elevate the outcome.
    1: paint or replace the bowtie
    2: paint the tow hooks to contrast
    3: get some new lugnuts. You got new wheels but reused the old crusty lugs which takes a lot away from the look.
    But if I saw this rolling towards me on the road y'all would definitely get a honk and a wave from me in my dime.

    I love a good S10 project. It looks like you got the 2wd offset wheels on the 4wd. For the next set of wheels, consider a Corvette or Camaro takeoff set or reproduction. There are tons of relatively inexpensive options and fit perfectly. IMO, the C4 saw blades would fit your project nicely.
    If you're looking for a cheap performance upgrade, do an electric fan swap. A 95-99 Olds Aurora was a car without a grille, so it had 2 powerful radiator fans in a 2 piece integrated shroud that is able to be separated. After removing the belt-driven fan, I took the high side Aurora fan and tucked it behind the factory s10 shroud and it fit so nicely that no further securing was necessary. I used a probe style thermostatic switch that I got from Summit, and switched the engine thermostat to a 180* for a little extra headroom in cooling. I set the fans to run somewhere between 190-195 and never had a cooling issue after. The engine revs so much more freely without that massive fan attached to it. If you can still find them, an underdrive pulley on the crank complimented that even further.
    Cheers!

    Not bad at all. I’d recommend wet sanding the taillights and hitting them with clear coat. I wouldn’t mind seeing you guys install a stereo and maybe do some interior mods.

    Nice work boys!
    2 recommendations from a fellow Washingtonian: 1- definitely swap the old halogen headlight bulbs for some good LED or other brighter bulbs (Silvania Silverstar or whatever they're called)
    2- should definitely go back to the junkyard and grab a hitch. They're easy to install, and is way better than the old ball-in-the-bumper one.

    Aside from the wheel choice it's a nice spiff up but the music in the vid is way too loud and obnoxious. You should leave it out in the future and I'd encourage you to talk to the camera while you are doing the work instead.

    Yeah it looks good from a mile away but you didn't do the body work right you just filled holes with Bondo which will fall off probably in about 6 months and the back bumper you says that has no dents you can clearly see two dents in it😊

    Looks pretty good, only thing i would suggest that is budget friendly that would look good would be to add some fender flairs if you plan on keeping those wheels for a while. All in all, right on and good on you for making that little pickup look as good as it does. keep it up!!
