man at some points i just wanna give up on my truck. it has been an ongoing project for around 2 years now due to lack of funds and time. It really sucks. I want nothing more to get it finished, but wow it's a major task. has anyone else felt like their project would never get done.
hang in there man.. cause once its done you can roll in to a gas station, pump your gas, walk in pay for it, grab yourself a soda.. an when you walk out you gaze upon your ride an think damn.. i own that bitch.
in most cases cars are an extension of ones self, if you see a gay car you meet a douche.. if you see something clean, usually the person is nice.. sometimes cocky.. but id rather be cocky than a douche any day :D
ok so im braggin.. im cocky
keep rollin your wheels, not everyone has the bank to drop cash left an right, one day your ride will be bitchin an everything i stated above you will see.l. it pays off in the long run
btw what have you got done, what have you left to do?

finished: shaved 3rd brake light, body kit is molded in roughly, shaved tailgate and tailgate handle, shaved gas door, shaved antenna, shaved emblems, seats are in it
stuff i want done:completely finish the body work, possibly suicide doors, 1/2" air ride with 4 link, 18's or 20's...paint...lexan rear window, and some other odd and ends
im old skool.. get the body done, slam the piss out of it w/out air, an roll on billet 18's
imo S10's look stupid sittin on anything bigger than an 18
but it isnt my ride.. its yours

I've got a nice air setup for cheap! Check in the for sale forum if interested!
20's can look nice on s-10's. Actually I've seen 22's look nice too. It just depends on how much cutting you want to do. If it's tuckin the wheels and still layin frame or rockers (Or in your case, ground effects) then they'll look nice and clean. But if the wheels are so big that it can't lay the truck out, then yeah, that's overkill.

Hey man, you can always call me I'll come get ya motivated. or vice versa, i would love to have people come help me get back on the road. well get my junk molded. I'm looking like half of parkersburg in my garage. Lots of colors, but nothing nice enough to show off yet. I've got the fenders pop riveted on, and the roof scoop molded in now. But molding of the fenders will continue tonight all by my lonesome with my radio and a grinder. But, by gosh by golly I'll get 'er done. I'm not gonna loose the faith.

The rims aren't bad..? The only thing I thought of was that rolling around with that license plate until that thing is painted might get a couple laughs. The car won't look too bad afterwards, though I woulda skipped the roof scoop unless I was taking out my a/c and planned to make it functional...
