Ready for Restoration
Carter’s goal for the S10 was to create an OEM+ restoration. The first step? Replacing all of the chrome parts with their OEM black equivalent. Next, he painted the truck to loosely resemble a contemporary S10 Baja Edition. Along the exterior, he replaced the stock headlights with Trucklite LED units, added a Line-X bed covering and a generic roll pan, and wrapped the wheels with BFGoodrich All-Terrain KO tires (235/70/16). They were the last set of that size available in the entire country. Chalk it up to fate.
If you think the outside looks shiny, take a look at the interior. Carter re-covered the seats with a Pendleton Woolen Mills blanket, installed a Retrosound Newport stereo and added a removable NRG hub and Sportline steering wheel.
If you ask us, this average Chevy S10 is anything but.
