    I bought a 79 jimmy with a 400 in it (according to the previous owner). The VIN is for an original 350. I am planning to go through the truck mechanically soon. Should I put attention to the radiator as I am willing to bet it was never swapped. I have a shroud out of a 78 I believe 454 and...

    Buffing action thread

    So the paint on my 87 is done for, its an older but good quality repaint as the truck was probably a factory peeler. I am going to get it presentable so I can drive it a few months and get all the mechanicals 100% and make sure it has no major issues that would superseded a paint job budget...

    Do these springs look tired, 87 4x4.

    Neverminding the 28.7 inch tall 235/75 tires. How does this look? I notice the front springs are inverted beyond flat but read thats normal? The truck was well taken care of. I am about to go through the truck tuning it up and trying to tread lightly and be minimal. I have some 31x10.50s...

    Is this pin stripe stock, 87 Silverado.

    Seems like a lot of these have some pin stripes. Before i start buffing on this sucker. Is there an RPO for this? It has the nice exterior trim but no power windows or locks. Pic: Seems like it would have been more blue-bluish if original. I may have to get an old school blue bug guard...

    K10 1 inch lift, best route?

    Bought an 87 V10, K10 whatever. Springs look to be decent, I want to throw some 32’s on it and lift the front 1 inch and the rear 1.5 inch. Has new 4 shocks on the front and I’d imagine 1 inch won’t need to change them. Dont mind changing the rear shocks. I see some cheap shackle kits on...
