I am pretty firm in my beliefs that most of the tuner car enthusiasts can respect and appreciate a classic bagged mini-truck project. The mini-truck scene contains the pioneers of “being low daily” and the use of airbag suspensions are becoming more and more popular in the tuner scene to achieve such a low ride height.
That brings us to Jesse’s ’89 S10; all black, completely dumped, and totally badass.
This S10 started its life out as a farm truck, which the previous owner had installed a lift kit on it. The bed was missing and the truck was miscolored. Jesse got the truck handed to him and quickly got to work. He found a bed to fit, sprayed the truck flat black and immediatly lowered it 5/7. After cruising around for a while, he decided he just needed to go lower. With some help from his dad, a full front airbag setup was installed. Not long after, the truck was hit while parked in the street and with the collected insurance money, Jesse fixed the front end from the collision and installed the full rear airbag setup.
Who doesn’t love big smokey burnouts?! We do.
