It’s truly amazing to see the level of dedication, investment, and labor that have been poured into so many of our trucks. This forum helps us share progress and ideas, but it’s reassuring to see the popularity and support for these trucks as many owners may not even have access to or interest in the internet.

Here are a couple of before and current photos of our truck for those that may not have seen them. First pictures are from 1992, followed by current 2015 updates:
1992

First pic is when I brought in home last year, Aug. 2014.

2nd pic was taken today, May 2015.

When I brought it home I was barely able to get it up on the trailer (hadn't ran since 1981). Over the last few months, few of the mods: Rear axle swap out of a 1997 c3500 srw, HEI dizzy, Alternator conversion, misc. engine work (235), new brakes, drums, pads, cylinders, Power steering conversion, 05 Silverado seats, new wheels (new $300 CL wheels), 3" drop, led taillights, misc. new wiring, new exhaust, minor body work, etc.....
