that was pretty solid looked to be in good shape for 290 k

Yah, I kick myself in the ass now for getting rid of it. Would have made a good backup/loaner vehicle for the family.

Lol, you internet *****

yes but you love me

 

[Old77]

I used to have a GMT400 also, had 290K on it when I retired it and got my current Burb. I should have kept it because it had very little rust but that was my pre-internet days and didn't have the access to info we have now to keep it going. She was pretty wore out mechanical wise.

I kick myself fairly often too for getting rid of any of my GMT400's my two favorites were my 94 ECSB (sold for a new 02 GMC Sierra ) and my 95 ECSB (sold for a more fuel efficient vehicle ) If I could go back in time and reverse those two transactions I would!!! Both were ridiculously clean and never let me down

Next truck I get is going to be a GMT400. My dream truck is a 454SS but the only ones I see for sale are about 20 times more than I want to pay

You'd be better off just getting a SWB GMT400 and cloning it rather than overpaying for a 454SS because someone thinks they have gold

OBS is second favorite GM truck body style

 

[Devs93]

what he said ......but screw the gas guzzling 454 camed and tuned 5.3 or 6.0 cranking about 400 hp and 18 + mpg ftw

 

[Irishman999]

That was kinda my direction I was headed, a regular short bed single cab 2wd would do fine for me. I wont be building a clone though, I could not force myself to put a 454ss sticker on a truck that is not a 454ss.

When I start thinking about all this I figure why not just put the money into my 85 instead of having two piece of **** trucks

This OBS-NBS stuff is confusing. For the longest time, square bodies were "OBS" and the '88-'98 was "NBS"... now all of the sudden everything is different. There's OBS, NBS, NNBS, etc. And a square body ain't a one of em.

 

[AJII]

Square = OOBS

 

[Old77]

Things like this is why I've started trying to refer to them by their platform designation rather than obs, NBS,.... Because a new body style is coming out in '14 and it'll get out of hand quick then

 

[Devs93]

yea I just say squarebody.....and if im refering to older then Ill say c10 most people get it....I was thinking the other day what the hell will the next realese of body style be nnnbs lol

 

[Swims350]

oh hey, I know ya from fsc and gmt400 what's up man?

good to see you over here too, and as always nice truck.

 

[Devs93]
