I live in an area with smaller population and therefore limited selection of used vehicles to choose from. I understand S10, S15, Sonoma, any others like Blazers, etc.? What years? (Would like to use the stock 4.3 motor). Thanks,
..and don't forget hunting down a long bed model will save you some time. Wheelbase is the same 117" as an A.D. truck.
