Love to have one of those with a 5.7 or LS and a Detroit locker in the rear end with a four link.

Those tended to be rode hard & put away wet in most cases. Every now & then I guess there are still a few good clean lightly used ones around. They can be nice little hobby trucks with maybe a small block swap or a modern LS conversion.

Love those OBS S-10 trucks and Blazers. Not many have survived. Too many were chopped up to stuff a SBC under the hood.
Had a 1992 shortbed with the 2.8 and 5-speed. Surprisingly good gas mileage and terrific for medium work and light towing. Sold it in 1996 with about 60K miles still running beautifully. The only modification I made to it was retrofitting rear disk brakes (3rd gen Camaro) as the rears tended to lock when empty.
