Each of these old episodes is a trip down memory lane. I used to love waking up on the weekend to watch the lineup of these shows. Thanks for uploading these
Yupp! Same here I remember always waking up early weekend mornings while my dad would cook breakfast and we'd all be watching Trucks! at the same time. I miss them days
Man so many memories me & my cousin use to sneak in the tv room every Sunday @ church & watch these episodes! My grandfather would always make us go back up front lol I ended up getting 01 xtreme first truck! TRUCKS 4 EVER
My older brothers and I always watched this every Sunday. Now we barely see each other let alone say hi. I sure do miss those days and how my brothers and I bonded.
This was a top notch build in 98-99 I remember watching these with my dad and brother Imagine them finding a s10 now of that year model and doing a 5.3 swap they would be no hand tools for dissemble more like a plasma and torch haha 👍🇺🇸
I'd be happy with the 4.3 under the hood. 1 hell of a great V6. I had owned a S series truck ('96) ZR2. Add a turbo muffler then some synthetic fluids to the engine,tranny & rear man that loosened up all 3 areas gave my old truck a little more performance! Thar yellow stripes on a red truck YUCK!!!
I've got those Edelbrock shocks on my S10. They quit making them like 15 years ago. They are pretty killer. They were like $80 each so pretty pricey (for me) back in the day. They are performer IAS shocks. Inertia Active System. They had a variable valving system that opened up for a smooth ride on a flat road, or stiffened up on rough roads on for carving corners. They work awesome. Now everyone has multi-valving shocks, but Edelbrock was the first that I'd heard of to offer them.
@@Toxic2T yea. For the longest time every project got immediately crushed. Cause of liability reasons, they couldn't sell them in case they found a sue happy prick. Stacey explains it in one episode where he says enough
One of my main gripes with gm is when that make a performance "appearance" package with no performance added under the hood. This is exactly how that truck should have been built.
As I understand it, the previous generation SBC (the TPI) had a very restrictive intake on it. I believe that Jeremy's dad fabricated the mini ram in an attempt to get more flow. The LT1 intake was a factory progression away from the TPI. Now all small block intake manifolds are plastic in order to prevent the heat soak associated with aluminium.
@@mrmister7526 the TPI was specificly designed for low end and mid range torque production at the cost of upper end horsepower. The TPIS Mini Ram which Jeremy's dad helped to develop was made for upper end horsepower. The LT1 and LT4 intake manifolds are basicly GM's version of the TPIS Mini Ram. Very similar.
Holy shit... I inherited a lot of tools from my dad and I always wonder wtf that tool does.... 2:40 I now KNOW! I can't tell you how many Exhaust's I have done and used a damn Saw Sawl!
I remember watching these when they first came out. I complained back then that they used a Fram junk ass oil filter, chrome shit that leaks, and was lazy with the gauges.
Sadly this S-10 was returned to Chevrolet after filming wrapped and was subsequently crushed, because according to Stacey "Chevrolet could not sell the truck as is because they could possibly be sued due to liability concerns."
like number 1000, this shit is gold. Edit: 16:50 theres Miss Misery(currently WORLDS FASTEST AWD TRUCK) he must have gotten tired of cleaning mud off his junk.
I remember Stacey saying that 20 years ago " We got stripes on our truck....lets go lay some one the road" Sadly I also remember him saying at a later date how this truck was CRUSHED along with the other truck shown "big orange"
@@marioiacolucci I haven't seen any videos posted on that project yet. I thought it was a very cool build. Have to wait I guess. Mel was gone from the show when that was built. He was only there for the first season. Funny how many of the hosts on the show just disappear without and no reason is given. Sometimes they say they are leaving, or a reason for leaving is given, but some just vanish lol. Along with their projects too....
im unable to find an original air date or match up the projects name to any episode listing but if it is first season, its 2001. the classic weekend line-up back in the day.
crused! i think chevy paid to have it built then said it was dangerous so they crushed it. and then big blaze was torn apart when it was sold for the motor and running gear.
This is from a time vehicle how to shows were quality, not just an infomercial. Anyone know what happened to this truck once it was done. I realize this was almost 20 years ago, just wondering if it is still around.
There's no way that LT1 is in that truck anymore and it's likely been replaced with LS power (assuming the truck still exists to begin with after all this time... because I was in high school when they were making this)
@@allanb3222 if I recall a few of the builds from the show "TRUCKS". Got loose. I know for a fact the orange K-5 Stacy built did. Very sad the way they found it. That truck was sweet 👌
LS6-SS Stacey bought a few of them (copperhead, though he sold it years later, crazy horse, Srgt rock and the hemi powered international truck). The rest were crushed.
That yellow stripe set and extream logo on rear window let alone a gen 2 small block ( and yes I do realize a gen 2 lt1 justmtookmthemstichnshift record but I still prefer an ls over a jen 2 lt1. End of rant. Im hope this didnt offend anyone.
You just had to bring that crap up... Rock bouncing is the drunk, inbred idiots that everyone always hated on trail rides getting all their father cousin brothers together so they don't look any dumber than the next guy.
Thats exactly what i was thinking.. choked down alot especially with that cat so close to the muffler.. i would have ran one or the other or neither lol
@@rancedanko 🤣 a single 3" is the stock exhaust for the TPI, LT1, and LS1 F bodies. Most aftermarket performance systems keep it single 3" too. It flows just fine for that engine, saves weight, and makes for an easy install on a truck that only came with a single pipe exhaust.
Friends dad has a 97 lt1 camaro with 16k miles looks good and handles amazingly yah the lt1 may not be an an ls1 but itll move out especially modded his is only minor mods tho we want him to do heads and cam
the one thing they didnt show was replacing the stock rear end the stock piece would of broke rather quickly especially the axels and the gears are wrong
either in this episode or one of earlier episodes of this project they mentioned looking into the rear end and determined the stock unit and axles would hold up just fine to the LT1.

The "Powerblock" on Saturday mornings was something I looked forward to every week!
Yupp! Same here I remember always waking up early weekend mornings while my dad would cook breakfast and we'd all be watching Trucks! at the same time. I miss them days
Stacey David is still rockin' a mullet.
I use to watch on Saturday then wake up and watch rerun on Sunday
Saturday mornings 9am I used to love waking up for this
Man so many memories me & my cousin use to sneak in the tv room every Sunday @ church & watch these episodes! My grandfather would always make us go back up front lol I ended up getting 01 xtreme first truck! TRUCKS 4 EVER
Still better than any of the new car shows on tv. I miss good old car shows.. non of this drama shows

I went from Saturday morning cartoons to Saturday morning powerblock. No regrets there!!

What are you talking about “ more like a plasma and torch”? You can do a 5.3/LS and bolt bolt these in!

An LS SWAP isn't radical its a piece of cake.

Funny seeing them work on fancy new rigs that are worth 3k now.
The LT1 new cost more then the truck dependinh on if it was a long block or not.
@@Jihadbearzwithgunz shit a new 4.3 v6 from GM was about 7k new crate engine
3k? In 2022 you couldn't test drive a mint xtreme for that

Yellow on red? Congratulations, you've made a McDonald's truck.
spjMrLahey 🤣🤣🤣🤣 that killed me 😏👍🏻
spjMrLahey it's the Hambergler from Hell. 🔥🍟🍔
It was a very common color combination back then. I remember the red Vipers had yellow racing stripes, too.
Its a quarter pounder
Ketchup and mustard
When they were doing the stripes Stacy said "these are going to look good"
Ha.
Wonder what toy they got with that Happy Meal.
I love projects with sponsors, exact parts and expert installation. I’m still trying to free up a rusted nut.
I'm sorry but I was waiting for Hulk Hogan to come out at some point... brother......
The 24" pythons brother!
I was thinking McDonald's, but you're right, it is colored just like Hogan's viper.
@@bmxland even the xtreme logo is in hulkamania style from the t-shirt6
Man this brings back memories. Used to watch this with my dad when I was younger. Love watching them work on some of my favorite trucks
This is the engine and transmission the Extreme S-10 should have come with from the factory.
They ruined the truck with the stripes altogether. Should have left it alone
Omg i remember this episode lmao stacy David's hair is still the same 25 years later
Damn I remember this episode when I was a kid. Horsepower tv was on before this came on. TNN. Classics.
The yellow is so 90s! I think silver would look real slick though
legodude19999 just leave it solid red
Black would've been classic though.
I wish they would've used black.
I loved the LT1 . The optispark was the biggest flaw in it though.
You spend 3 video's building this truck, then show it on the road for 35 seconds,......... :(
Tell me about it hahah
Now just think the truck was crushed by GM after it was build
@@johnleonello5961 Really?
Cus it only took 35 seconds to reck it i mean clearly they had mechanical issues

You know it's 1990's when you put yellow on top of red... It's still a badass little truck...
Black stripes would not hurt that truck but killed it with the yellow😳

Rather watch them working on there old school s10
Lt1 don’t hit a puddle of water
First!!!
Yellow Stripes!!!
90s for sure
Holy shit... I inherited a lot of tools from my dad and I always wonder wtf that tool does.... 2:40 I now KNOW! I can't tell you how many Exhaust's I have done and used a damn Saw Sawl!
A Sawl?
Icutmetal Yes, a Saw Sawl, that’s the reciprocating tool to cut stuff. Yes thats the proper way to spell it.
@@TRX450RVlogger you mean a reciprocating saw?
Gotta love 90’s flashback
I'll be sure to put a cat on my v8 S10 😆
20 years later I'm sitting in my ford ranger smoking weed and watching TRUCKS!
you know its old when the are not using electric tools lol
Everyone dogging about the color scheme and stripes that's what was popping back in that era all I gotta say
That 2.2l whould smoke some tires off
I remember watching these when they first came out. I complained back then that they used a Fram junk ass oil filter, chrome shit that leaks, and was lazy with the gauges.
Said the same thing
Stacey David really was the Charlie Daniels of the torque wrench.
Sadly this S-10 was returned to Chevrolet after filming wrapped and was subsequently crushed, because according to Stacey "Chevrolet could not sell the truck as is because they could possibly be sued due to liability concerns."
Yellow stripes was a terrible choice...who's idea? lol good job fellas!
They removed the cardboard from the radiator too soon. Look at 6:33 and 6:54
Oops.
I remember watching this back in the day.
Yellow on red looks just awful, white yes. But yellow eewww
What about McDonald's logo?
For sale; 1999 Chevy 1500 with 6" lift, clean one owner!
I wonder if Stacy is the one playing the theme song

Sounds like a Cash for Clunkers trade if I had to guess.
@@WastelandWanderer1216 he talks about early on Gears. They came from Chevy and because of liability issues they were crushed.

I love the truck but not the yellow stripes. White would have looked much better 😌
What are these "catalytic converters" they're talking about? LOL
That orange truck though. Can we see that project?
It was featured in BFG tire adds in the 4x4 rags of the time.

The good old days
@@Marco-nx5tj in so many ways.
I know this episode is probably 15 yrs old but Chevy never put stripes on the roof.
The new name should be Hambergler from hell love the truck colours. Looks fun and fast.🔥🍔🍟
I'd love to see that s10 now! Wonder where it ended up?!?!
crused! i think chevy paid to have it built then said it was dangerous so they crushed it. and then big blaze was torn apart when it was sold for the motor and running gear.
All these free parts and no free cordless tools
Back then cordless tools are not anything like they are now.
@@bmstylee Yep. Late 90s early 00s cordless tools were either wimpy or didn't last long enough to be worth it for high torque needs.
Should have kept it just red....
Everybody is going to complain about man I would have done White Stripes
Agreed. Either white or black. I personally would have done black with the red paint
Eeeeeewwww I saw a fram filter...
Holy Crap! Stacey looks so young here.
Thanks i own now many ,the old trucks show and use to reverence to inpruve.They are chip the new truck 3 off them vs one new.

The stripes on the hood aren’t parallel, the one on the right is down farther toward the grill
Hell ya, v 8. S 10, my dream
@10:47 The X chem trail in the background in the sky was appropriate for the Xtreme S10
haha right
I understand you meant well, but those yellow stripes are just....🤨
God those strips and decals were so corny but the 90s were still strong with people back then
They did that with a 7.5 rear gear a baby 10 bolt rear end
I wasn't feeling the yellow stripes. The rest of the truck was great
I wonder if they make the striped in an M shape. As long as you're going Ronald McDonald, might as well go all in.
These dudes have some seriously cool haircuts.
Mel looks like he could be Zack Morris dad from saved by the bell
Stacey “the mullet” David
Miss my Xtreme
There's no way that LT1 is in that truck anymore and it's likely been replaced with LS power (assuming the truck still exists to begin with after all this time... because I was in high school when they were making this)
People are still building lt1's. And they are still making decent times. I'll never build another one but they are a capable platform.

Rock bouncing is the drunk, inbred idiots that everyone always hated on trail rides getting all their father cousin brothers together so they don't look any dumber than the next guy.
Wheel to Wheel went out of business a long time ago. All their stuff must not have been that good.
Fram oil filter?
Sometimes it's hard to remember what car life was like 20 years ago. And watching video recorded in SD is jarring in these HDTV days.
They was wrong for those stripes..
We're going to need an "F" for that 12 bolt boys, we all know how strong they aren't.
You mean 10 bolt
Did the beef up the diff?
Anyone else notice stacey installing the shock upside down?
How? These shocks have 2 bolts at the top and one at the bottom. Exactly how he installed it.
They only add a single exhaust on the S10 LT Xtreme. They should've add a dual exhaust.
Thats exactly what i was thinking.. choked down alot especially with that cat so close to the muffler.. i would have ran one or the other or neither lol

Clearly they are. That adds at least 50 hp alone.
Just wish they would have left it solid red.
Come on Stace yellow stripes??? All that hard work and power to ruin it with yellow striping
dont mess up the scarmbler
Still not sure why they didn't use the LS platform
This was 1999, the first year the LS was used in the trucks and only 2 years after it debuted in the Vette. Still too rare and expensive.
It was a ton more money and only made a little bit more power.
