    Got Rust?

    as much as the ex-seems like an idiot by naming the truck big sexy and leaving you to raise the kids. At least he cares about the kid and wants them to be happy. there are many people that even though the truck is rusted out and no running would fight tooth and nail to keep it.

    Is a 99 bed the same as a 98?

    In response to continued fleet sales, the GMT400 trucks were produced as the Sierra Classic/Silverado Classic until the GMT400 ended production at the end of the 2002 model year. (took this from wiki)

    Rear bumper ideas. Build to come asap

    take cardboard and start taping it together till you get a shape and structure you like. this is just a random image but trust me using cardboard to make it up is way cheaper than messing up with steel. the best part is you can then use the cardboard as a stencil to trace the steel when you cut...
