Morning Symphony: J. Malcom’s “Project Cheapskate” S-10 Tearing The Rears To Shreds!


Morning Symphony: J. Malcom’s “Project Cheapskate” S-10 Tearing The Rears To Shreds!

A little less than a year ago, Justin Malcom decided that he was going to do a budget build up for himself. The car in question at the time was a G-body Monte Carlo and the budget was supposed to be in the neighborhood of $5,000, or right on point with our Rough Start budget. We were curious to see what would come of the project…then the busy season hit us last year and we didn’t stop until what felt like Thanksgiving. Between now and then Malcom has been a busy man…the Monte left the picture and instead a first-gen Chevrolet S-10 took the role, and over the last few months it’s been turned into a burnout-happy little bastard of a truck! It sounds the part and it’ll blow the rears off at the drop of a hat, and it’s still well within budget. It’s good to know that you can have a ball and keep your costs down at the same time. Cubic dollars will buy you power, but doing it right by metering out the cash you have and putting in the effort is so much more rewarding in the long run!
