Re: How about some pics of 88-98 Part II

/Users/chrisswift/Desktop/IMG_1947.JPG
My 95 350 I'm beginning to sink my wallet and heart into. My grandfather bought this truck in 2000 but has had at least (7) 88-98 rcsb 2 wheel drives w/350. Never left one of them stock. He built street rods his whole life and was a pretty famous builder. His love and skill for auto motives rubbed off on me so I am now 24 and just graduated college and am opening my own auto shop by April 2015. Anyways my grandfather who raised me and taught me everything I knew Passed October 2nd 2014. This 1995 beauty was left to me and was his last and only vehicle. He had already had the 3/4 drop done, flow master exhaust, rebadged, tinted, wheels (but not these ones), corvette servo, and a few other things. Well since I have owned it as a tribute to him I'm going all out on this truck cosmetically then I will be building the 350 and keep you guys posted. I have put the 18x8 riddler w/ 235/55/18 on front and 18x9.5 255/55/18 rear, alpine speakers and radio, billet grille, crystal headlights running lights and markers, new rear bumper, new taillights, new mirrors, new carpet, new suede headliner, and best of all suede and leather bench seat cover for $750 as well as suede inserts in the doors, and put the bed cover on. I am beginning to get this thing where I want it and am really happy with the progress. Contemplating a 4/6 drop but I pull a Baja so not practical but other than getting the paint cleaned up real nice this winter and possibly re routing exhaust Its almost where I want. Please feel free on suggestions for rerouting the exhaust (i.e side exit, different tips etc.) but this is my beloved chevy at the moment that I will die with. I can't picture a better vehicle to remember and tribute him with and every time I look at my pappys truck I smile. Here are some pics and I will be keep you guys updated as well as posting pictures of all the other 88-98 silverados he had.
