Oohh, the lift makes your truck look perfect... unaggressively aggressive, not as dainty as stock and not too over the top like a stump jumper. Just a nice manly truck.... A thought, do what suits your wife, it'll make you both happy.1983 GS1100E, 1983 CB1100F, 1991 GSX1100G, 1996 Kaw. ZL600 Eliminator, 1999 Bandit 1200S, 2005 Bandit 1200S, 2000 Kaw. ZRX 1100

As a friend of Trevor's, he already knows what I have. It's a '95 GMC Sierra 1500 SLE, 350ci, auto, which I bought in 2005. It had 123,000km, (76,000mi) on it when I bought it. I paid $10,000 for it and I haven't had to do anything major to it now that it has 215,000km, (134,000mi) on it. Even though it's got those tires on it, it's not a 4X4. Those were what were on it when I got it. Apparently the former owner's wife told him to "put some manly looking tires on it" as the stock ones looked wimpy! I got used to the look so when I did eventually replace them, (they were new), I went with the same size. 200,000 km truck.jpgKevin

A parent of one of my students heard that I am guiding a couple of freshman who want to learn mechanics. He has a 1970 C10 that he has offered to bring in to let them refurbish. The kids will learn as they go, while the parent provides parts as needed. The truck was his high school best friend's, so there is a lot of meaning to both sides of this project."Thought he, it is a wicked world in all meridians; I'll die a pagan."

Well I have been keeping an eye out for an older short box GM/Chev truck for a little while...a project for me and my son to work on together.
My boy is working as mechanic apprentice after completing his first term...I'm proud of how he has been maturing...he's a good young man and we are lucky. Doing what I do for a living I really know how lucky we are....
Found this 1997 GMC c1500 Sierra 5 speed....hard to find....this one needs some work but has good bones...not sure how much down the rabbit hole we will go....I mean it's begging for an LS motor...lol.
Came with lots of extras too...oem headlights, taillights, a canopy that I put on my other truck and a another set of SS rims...
My boy is already at it....
I have come up with a plan to pay him 20 bucks an hour when he works on the truck by himself....he would do it for free but he can use the money for his project Celica
Cool slider cover too
