Pick it up Tuesday...
If all goes well, and it should, I'll be pick her up on Tuesday.
http://carphotos4.cardomain.com/imag...9017_large.jpg Sorry for the ****ty phone camera, but I'll get some better pics up, when I get'r home. It's a 2012 Chevy Silverado, 4x4, 4.8, bluetooth, mp3, on star, xm radio, pw/pl/pd, A/C, cruise, 40/20/40 seat, and chrome package. I can't wait, this is the first brand new truck or car I have ever bought, pretty excited. |

Nice truck. How does that 4.8 move it?

I'm already planning to put on a levelling kit, bigger tires, a tonneau cover, and spray in liner. But, that it. After that it's back onto the '84.

Re: Pick it up Tuesday...
looks good man. the leveling kit will give it a subtle difference that looks so much better

Re: Pick it up Tuesday...
Took it in today to have a dual exhaust put on, I'm going with a thrush welded because I liked the sound on my old 97 Sierra with a 5.7.I've had it 6 days an only have only put 350km's on it and I'm already cutting it up :metal:.
Got a price on a levelling kit, it's a ready lift 2.25. Just gotta find out if 285/70/17's will fit. I'll try and get a video of it when I go get it later. I'm pretty happy, now the truck sounds like a truck. |
Re: Pick it up Tuesday...
Got a vid, but I will do another one in a few weeks or more, after the exhaust is broken in, and I have a better camera

Re: Pick it up Tuesday...
I did my 2011 with a Magnaflow setup and dual outlets. Good sound and a healthy change in flow. I also installed a set of Kooks headers on my 5.3.

Picked up a ready lift 2.25" levelling kit. Gonna be a bit before I get it on, gotta find the time to do it. Gonna run my stock tires for a bit, they are brand new after all, and eventually get some 285/70/17's on some aftermarket rims (haven't decided which yet). I might run some 255/80/17 on the stockers, if I can find some decent winter tires in that size (it's not looking good).

Re: Pick it up Tuesday...
Little update, the levelling kit is on
http://carphotos4.cardomain.com/imag...0535_large.jpg http://carphotos3.cardomain.com/imag...0534_large.jpg also added some mud flaps, because the roads here in saskatchewan are hell on paint. |
Damn you saskatchewan!
I try in vain to keep this truck clean. But when it rains out here this happens every time...

Re: Pick it up Tuesday...
Some updates...
New bed caps http://carphotos.cardomain.com/image...9685_large.jpg New mirror caps http://carphotos2.cardomain.com/imag...9684_large.jpg http://carphotos2.cardomain.com/imag...9683_large.jpg Painted wheel wells http://carphotos3.cardomain.com/imag...9682_large.jpg Also picked up some painted door handles, but I need more time to be able to install them. |
Re: Pick it up Tuesday...
Looking good ;) Where did you pick up your door handles? I've been on a search for some, only can find them on Ebay but I never priced the dealership. Nate

Hey, what did you do with the Bowties you took off the doors? That is a nice clean look...I have a 2011 Crewcab in here & would love to have the small Bowtie for the Silverado lettering on the tailgate.
|
Re: Pick it up Tuesday...
I've got them in a drawer, I've got plans for them and the SILVERADO badges.
|
Re: Pick it up Tuesday...
:)OK.....thanks for the heads up....I took my tailgate bowtie off when it started peeling from behind, got it warrantied & have the new one in the box for later. I wasnt terribly upset because I've never liked how big the bowtie was....looked a bit out of proportion to me....congratulations again on the new truck!
