  • Just another guy from norway.....

    Hi!
    I'm Halvor! I come from a small, godforsaken rock out by the north sea called Norway.. Being raised by parents with a passion for american cars and culture, I tend to like american cars better than other. I've had several american cars, both lowriders and 4x4s, but as many of my friends claim, I'm a bit scared of heights, and tend to drive lowered cars to compensate.
    I'll add a couple of photos below of my previous cars!
    Some of you might have seen some photos of my current project on other forums (and might recognize my nick), but I figured id present it here as well. I will, if people are interested, add a project thread here as well.

    My project car for the time being is a 85 Chevrolet S10 Fleetside.
    Originally equipped with a 2,8 V6 and a TH700 transmission.
    Well, the 2,8 had to go for something a bit bigger.. I'll let the pictures tell..
    Fitted a 505cui V10 engine out of a Srt10 Ram (viper), along with the factory T56 transmission also out of the ram. This thing should be fast..

    I guess its time to show of what my garage stores..
    It is a work in progress tho, hope you don't mind..







    my daily driver last summer:


    the pickup truck i had as a daily driver 4 years ago:




    traded the ram for this thing


    well, thats my story.. (and Im stickin to it!)

      thanks man! the wagon was lowered the easy way.,. cut the front coils, and replaced the rear ones with lower ones.. and then add wheels.. very easy, very cool!

            its not a ramcharger, its just a ram.. the ramcharger is sort of a K5 blazer with a removable back half.. the ram is simply just a pickup, a cab and a bed..
            but thanks anyway.. the s10 is the most advanced project i've worked on.. it seems fitting a v10 into a car that normally houses a 2.8 is a bit more problematic than first anticipated

                    is it even possible to eat coke, or for that matter, legal?

                        sort of forgot about this thread!
                        the truck isnt quite done yet , should I go ahead and make a thread in the projects section of this forum, or is it ok to post updates here?

                        got my first story earlier this year!
                        At the purest level, being a passionate car guy is a selfish game.Somewhere along the line a bug with gas in its veins and a love for all things mechanical wriggles underneath the skin and settles in for a lifetime of gear-head glory.That’s something Halvor Sorhus and his Chevrolet S10 build know very well.


                        on to the pictures:



                        last christmas my grandmother got me the tubular a-arms. that way the stock manifolds would clear the stock control arms..


                        as you can see, the firewall isnt what it used to be.. ive set it back about 8 inches to clear the engine and transmission.
