Hello MD Minis!

I'm new to the forum, as is everyone else so far it seems lol. My name is J.C. and I have a 1993 S-10 that I am rebuilding in memory of my cousin-in law who passed away 4 years ago. It's been a long ongoing project but it's coming along nicely. We had it out for the first time since we started the project, at Carlisle All Trucks this past summer. I also have a Sentra SE-R Spec V as my daily driver and am the Vice President of Prestigious Innovations Auto Club. Some of you may also know me as SEntRaman on MDSS.

Anyways, here are some pics:

My car and the truck

I also have a build thread which can be found here: http://prestigiousinnovations.org/forum/showthread.php?t=474

Sounds about right. A couple years ago I think it was now. I remember meeting you guys with the Grand Am.

looking good so far

Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii JC

looking good man

Thanks guys!

looks good. you have any other plans for it ?

Oh yeah. We'll be painting it in black primer and getting wheels for it this summer. Then it'll get a V8 swap since the 2.8 is slowly dying lol. Then we're going to have a cali combo skin welded to the back, and have the body cleaned up and some other things shaved, and then have it painted professionally (still deciding color). Then it'll get a full interior. The idea is to have a full show truck when it's completed.

cant wait to see this thing progress man, it will def. look good

Thanks man. I really cannot wait to get the wheels ordered and on it. They will completely change the look of the truck. And together with the primer will make it much more respectable than the way it sits now in 4 different colors lol.

what wheels did you go with?

I like the gray plastic flares on there, I say when you do paint it keep em!

x2 they look good smoothed and colormatched

Bonspeed Tsunami's.

NICE!!

Thanks! I've only seen one other truck have them and that was a full size Ram in an issue of Truckin'. And to be fair, we had the idea to get them long before he was in teh magazine lol. We picked them out about 2 or 3 years ago, just havent been able to get them yet.

Nice wheels. It always seems to work that way. I have had my wheels since 2007..saw hardly anyone with them.. next thing you know everybody and there mom has them lol time for a change!

Lol, I'm hoping not many people go with them afterwards but like you said, you never know lol.

Not many people go with them because they are expensive as hell, lol. I don't think you have to worry.

I would love to have billets, but I do way too much driving on too small of a tire...

Yes, they are definitely on the more expensive end lol. That's one of the reasons that it's taken so long to get them. But they will be totally worth it.
