1985 CHEVROLET S10 SHORTBED with 355 SBC ALUMINUM HEADS ROLLER CAM High Quality Build - Full Frame Off With Picture Documentation - No Expense Spared - $30K in parts alone in this build - Will Sell Turn Key Complete for $16,500 - OR will sell as a Frame Off Restored ROLLER for $11,700 - Just the Moser Rear Axle, Custom Driveshaft and Fuel Cell was about half that dollar amount! 2700 lbs DRY WEIGHT - All Steel - Clean and Laser Straight Rust Free Survivor Body, Full Interior, Drag Radials, 4 Wheel Disc Brakes Very low hours on the 355 Chevy Small Block 4 Bolt Main with Edelbrock E-TECH Aluminum Heads RPM Performer AIR GAP intake, Billet Holley Double Pumper, Jet Hot Coated Headers, Rolling Thunder Full Roller Cam, Roller Rockers, Forged Lunati Bottom End, Fully Built Turbo 400 with 3600 RPM Stall 9 inch Converter, Hurst Quarter Stick MOSER Rear Axle Ford 8.8 Disc Brake with Chevy Bolt Pattern, 3.73 Gear Set - All Cal Trac Rear Suspension with Split Monos and Heim Joint Bars, Auto Gauge AutoMeter Speedo, Shift Light Tach and instruments The truck is street legal and can comfortably be used on the street or track or both. It launches perfectly straight and predictable - you can either overpower the tires all the way up or learn how to launch it for almost wheels up weight transfer traction. It foot brakes to about 2500, converter comes in all the way around 3500, and the shift light is set for 5700 - all of that happens very quickly with only a couple seconds in first 2 gears (often less in first) and top end in another 5-7 seconds. Have dyno video with 400 RWH with way more advance to go which is at the most conservative a mere 6.7 lbs per hp - that is pretty darn good It has excellent 4 wheel disc brakes and stops hard and steers and corners firmly with big 16 inch performance tires on the front and 275/16 M&H Dragmaster Drag Radials out back It drives extremely well with all new suspension pieces and large 16 in wheels and tires and has plenty of power. It doesn’t smoke or overheat - you can sit in traffic or cruises and it never gets past the 180s on the temp gauge - it is a very reliable driver and a serious drag truck for not a lot of money. It has 3.73 gears so you are not killing the motor on the street and it has a suprising 60 foot time and quick top out in each gear with that ratio. An important point - Most vehicles like this have gone through dozens of high school graduating classes and have been wrecked, painted and repainted numerous times over shoddy bodywork and in the hands of novice mechanics and abusive drivers over the last 32 years - not this one - this truck was pro built with a complete frame off restoration and modification build and adult owned since completed - We have pictures of the truck before it was touched and it was definitely in survivor condition. Most of these type trucks are cobbled together sketchy builds typically sourcing a worn out truck and combining it with a worn out stock V8 engine - not this one - if that is the price point you are looking for then I’m sure you will find one that needs tons of work and will likely cost more in the long run The total cost to date is well over the sale price offered here - Anyone with a Summit or Jegs catalog can walk around this truck and easily add up over $30,000 worth of speed parts alone. Just the Billet Holley Double Pumper, braided fuel lines, liquid filled Fuel Pressure Gauge and throttle return springs was a $1000. Just the aftermarket things you see in the cab, the AutoMeter Speedo, Shift Light Tach, Instruments, Grant GT Steering Wheel and Hurst QuarterStick was over a $1100 - the list goes on and on.... The asking price is cheap compared to just the labor put in on this build - No matter what this sale is a give away - you could not build this car for what I am asking even if someone gave you a clean S-10 to start with for free! The truck is a turn key running, driving, licensed vehicle - Please only respond if you are familiar with this type of vehicle and know what you are looking at I will only reply to messages with a phone number so please include one - I have a full website with details and tons of pictures for people we speak with on the phone so I can go over everything in detail - Thanks
