Readers' Trucks January '98
Doug Martin's '96 S-10

Check out this low-down 1996 Chevrolet S-10 Extended Cab. The paint is Emerald Green Metallic. Exterior modifications include shaved emblems, a rear rollpan, a color-matched grille, and a hinged soft tonneau.

To get down low, Doug added dropped spindles and firestone airbags in front, with an on-board compressor, tank, and guages. Out back, Doug removed a leaf spring from each side and added blocks. At this low height, the bumpstops were all removed to allow suspension travel, and the rear bumpstop mounts were torched off to get even more room.

The custom rollers are 15x8-inch Progressive rims with 205/50/15 rubber, which tuck nicely under the fenders when the truck is sitting on the ground.

The stereo system consists of Kenwood, JL Audio, and Precision Power components.

Along with being a College Student at Kansas State University, Doug Martin is also Vice President for his club, Ground Zero, and he's also Webmaster for the Ground Zero, Chapter 5 Mid-KS web site.

Drop Doug a note about his truck.
