My 93 CCSSB

Well Thanks to my buddy Joe (joe231) he ran across this thing this morning on his way to work and send my a pic. I have been looking for one for a while now but most of them are way out of my price range and i didn't want another payment..... So i picked him up at lunch and we went to check it out, she has some problems but if we were worked like this ol work truck has been we would too it has a 454 tbi and auto trans, and with a little negotiating we drove it home for $400.
I will post more pics in the daylight tomorrow.

Re: My 93 Crewcab Build

So, a C1500 chassis equivalent with a StepSide (Sportside) bed, dropped on bags with some 20's. Maybe a RangeRover grille conversion.....

Looks good Scott. That's a lot better deal than the one that is down here in town. Can't wait to see updates.

I had only seen them in the LMC catalog until last weekend when wife and I went to Longview, TX. As we were coming home on US80 and were almost to US59, I saw an '88-98 headed west on 80, with the range rover lighting mod. Then, as we sat at the intersection, another '88-98 with the same mod came west and headed south towards Houston. From a catalog to two examples in minutes....whoooodathunkit?

I still don't know how to feel about it, but it looked better as it was being driven away from me than it did head-on....

Re: My 93 Crewcab Build

Thats a steal for sure, so many upgrade options available for those years of trucks. the new range rover fronts look good in black. or the escalade clips. Stepside would look sick too.

Congrats Man!

Re: My 93 Crewcab Build

Definately need to jack the seats out of a burb, with all that back seat no need for a bench up front. Make it a 2+2, That'd be nice.

No what would also look sweet. I nice drop and once you shortin it a clean aluminum flat bed set up. I seen a fleet of company trucks for a glass co set up like that. The trucks were all black, with polished flat beds and nice mags. They were like show work trucks.
