So now we are up to date on the history of the dime, and we all know no good story would be finished without telling you "The Rest of the Story" so here we go.  Now that Damion had acquired the truck from Troy he saw a lot of personal touches the wanted added to the truck. I mean think about it no good respectable mini trucker could leave a truck untouched of his own personal appeal. So with that in mind Damion rallied up his friends and fellow club brethren to finish off the perfect mini. Damion decided to plumb the entire air system over again using all stainless steel lines to ensure reliability. He added two Viar 450 compressors with the lines leaving the compressors in a tribal design and heading thru the bed into two ten-gallon storage tanks supported under the bed of the truck. To get air to the bags eight Parker Skinner 3/8" gold valves were then added to the system.

Next Damion swapped the roll pan that was previously installed for a Sophie roll pan with a clear taillight combo. To finish off the bed area Damion wrapped the bed area in a custom carpet kit. To make a few more ponies out of the 4.3 V6 a Ractive air intake system was installed and a Power Programmer was used to reprogram the computer to add the go fast appeal of the dime. To get rid of spent gasses a two chamber Flow-Master was then installed. To finish off the engine area assorted billet accessories were then installed under the hood.  Now Damion had the show winning combination he wanted to achieve. Damion has shown his dime at such shows at New Orleans World of Wheels, Showfest, Lake Front Tour, Mardi Gras Nationals and several local events, taking home trophies at each to prove that this is not just another S-10. You can expect to see more of this ultra clean dime this next show season all over the south. There is no way Damion could forget to thank his wife Heidi who has put up with his costly obsession and past projects. Damion would also like to thank his club Envious Styles for all their support and hard work to make this truck happen. At a price tag of over 20g's to build this truck will make anyone Green with Envy.
