Parts Search

My Chevy S10 LS 4x2 Pickup truck is evidently a pretty hard truck to buy parts for. All I needed for it was a bumper bar with the impact stip, and a slotted or barred grille. So far I have been to Ontario Truck Parts, the Cobbs lot in Sodus, Wilberts GM Parts in Penfield, Andy's Auto Parts in Union Hill, and the Door Store in Ontario and none of them have what I need!

Item 1, 1998 Chevy S10 LS 2WD Pickup chrome front bumper with impact strip. ($200.oo new) Item 2, 1998 Chevy S10 LS 2WD Pickup slotted/barred grille. ($125.oo new)

I almost feel as if I'm trying to get parts for a Ferarri or something.

My last stop was the Door Store and they gave me the most hope of finally getting what I need by offering to order the parts used. $140.oo for the front bumper assembly and $88.oo for the grille. I believe I will take that offer.

I do feel pretty privileged about owning such a unique piece of machinery. The LS is the second most desireable S10 pickup with the S10 extreme coming in first. My truck also has the extremely rare and super-stylish limited edition black rims. haha.

sometimes I have trouble organizing my paragraphs.

All you need is not to run into anything anymore.

Aw Jim, you're spoiling all his fun!

Joe, Dad says you're looking for parts in the wrong place. Talk to him first if you haven't already bought something.

Where else is there to look?? There must be some deep dark secret Dad knows. Some undergroud-black market-ish network of shifty parts dealers.

Is Dad in a secret soceity?
