Re: 1995 chev w/t 4.3 5 spd

for now, just get what it needs for inspection, and drive it until they start putting salt on the roads. then i'll drive my winter beater for a while, and work on the truck some more. eventually i'd like a cowl hood, a tbi 350, and a set of aftermarket chrome wheels, maybe lower it a bit.

he's been driving it almost everyday, it is a work truck model, so we figured we'd put it to work. is these pictures there is about 1800lbs. of scrap on it, all solid steel and cast.

My brother bought these wheels a while back. I was going to buy them from him, but he sold them before i got a chance. Hopefully i'll find another good set of wheels in the spring. Maybe a set of chrome ss wheels?

Re: 1995 chev w/t 4.3 5 spd

Found a factory radio today to replace the water damaged aftermarket one that's in it now. The guy said he'd also sell my a chrome grill with headlights, and some mirrors (since mine are frigged) once it warms up some. My brother is also considering a trade for a 73-87 project with him.

Re: 1995 chev w/t 4.3 5 spd

So with spring rolling in and summer on the way it's almost time to brush off the snow and start chicken truck season! My plans for this summer are wider tires, hopefully a 2/4 lowering kit, fix the leak in the back window, get some better interior pieces gathered up, back bumper and front hangers, and a vortex muffler with duals. Hopefully it can all get done this year!

Re: 1995 chev w/t 4.3 5 spd

Got a lot of things done and I've just been too busy to post anything, so here's what's happened since my last post. Got brand new cooper cobra tires, 275/60r15 for the back and 255/70r15 for the front. Found a set of bumpers, both chrome, the front one with the long lower valence. Got a tool box and box rails, and that's about caught up. Here's how it all looks!
