my 94 blaze

Re: Post Your Ride 88-98 Trucks
 

any specs on the blaze, booger?

Re: Post Your Ride 88-98 Trucks
 

it has 6 inch trailmaster 3 in body lift 37x14.5 super swamper iroks on 15x12 MTs but soon to be solid axled and its going on 49 cant wait

Re: Post Your Ride 88-98 Trucks
 

that aughta be cool as hell. I want to SAS mine, maybe next year or this winter, if we get a garage built (kinda decent, at about 36'x60' I think is what we are going to do), but I'm not going to go big. I want to stick with somewhere around 37-40's tire wise, leafs front, D60 + 14BFF, the stock NP241, etc, build it tough, but keep it a daily driver. Even though custom bumpers would probably be soon into the picture (27" stupid bumper laws). I think a 40" tire on a DD would be cool.

Re: Post Your Ride 88-98 Trucks
 

my blaze is my daily driver my toy is a 90 short bed it is sas it has 4.88 gears locked front and rear its not the nices truck around but its just a toy i do alot of rock crawling but i will try to get some pics up of it tommorow

Re: Post Your Ride 88-98 Trucks
 

this is my 90

Re: How about some pics of 88-98 Trucks
 

Well here's mine. 88 1500 with a 5.7 and 4x4, 94 blazer wheels and dual exhaust out the side. Everything else is stock but the previous (also the original) owner had the bed repainted... and its kind of obvious... but not at a distance. Its my daily driver and just rolled over 170,000. It burns some oil and eventually I will rebuild it. The trans. will need to be rebuilt soon, and the rear end has been rebuilt once but it needs to be rebuilt again/replaced... I've put new tires on it and put a permanent cb mount on the roof. (neither are in the picture) but thats it...

Re: How about some pics of 88-98 Trucks
 

Here are a couple pictures of my daughter's '93 C1500. The story; shortly after she was born, in 1992, I purchases a new victory-red, C1500 "Sport", I lowered the truck and did a few other modifications to the truck, it got a lot of attention, folks loved it and I was constantly pestered to sell it. After eight years and 70,000 miles a guy made me an offer, which he was a fool to make and I was a fool to take, away went the truck my daughter loved. My daughter was heartbroken and as she grew a little older she asked me if we could buy that truck back. Two years ago my then 14 year old daughter and I found and bought this truck, while it isn’t identical to the one she fell in love with, we are working on it.

Re: How about some pics of 88-98 Trucks
 

Yes, this is the same truck! My friends Darrin and Sean of Bakstreet Kusstmz in Havelock, North Carolina have truly outdone themselves! They do what other shops won’t!

I traded a co-worker $500 and a Glock pistol for it, so I call it my Glock Truck

Re: How about some pics of 88-98 Trucks
 

My 98 Suburban that I sold in 2006 for my 2006 Sierra Denali Crew Cab. The truck does not looks this good anymore. Someone around the corner from my home bought it from the dealer I traded in to and has totally abused it!!!

Re: How about some pics of 88-98 Trucks

Re: How about some pics of 88-98 Trucks
 

Damn id really love to have those 454 rims!! Its hard trying to find them!!

Re: How about some pics of 88-98 Trucks
 

Could be your lucky day. I have the set that is still mounted with two of the original tires. I also have a set of rims, which are almost like new.

Re: How about some pics of 88-98 Trucks
 

This is my 1997 w/t, with 207000 miles on it. 4.3 with automatic.

Re: How about some pics of 88-98 Trucks
 

My first attempt at a pic.........?????
Wow....It worked ,Cowl hood, Belltech 4"-6" , 17" budniks, now sits lower since we got all the bumpstops out, but I still need to put the notch's in, Got lots of other plans for it too...Was my Dads, Mom gave it to me when Dad passed...man I sure miss him

Re: How about some pics of 88-98 Trucks
 

Spurger....Yip...bigger tires might settle the motor down a bit...

I know that my 350 is breathing hard at 70 or so with the (30"?) stock mud and snows on it....

Re: How about some pics of 88-98 Trucks
 

SJCharney, I looked at your cardomain pics (and I love your truck, btw), then a couple days later I saw this on my local CL. Your truck's long-lost brother:

Attachment 452183

Attachment 452184

Attachment 452185

Attachment 452186

Here's the ad text, seems like a good price. I'm sure it's not as straight as yours, although I would definitely roll in it...


94 GMC SIERRA GT - $4300 (SMYRNA)

350 Vortec motor from a 98 Chevy Tahoe, 4L60 trans has less than 10k on rebuild. The rearend has a new 4.11 gear, bearings, and Auburn limited slip differential. Belltech 3in drop springs in the front and shackle and spring hangers in the rear. PW, PDL,CC, new tires. 4300.00 firm, may trade for a 2000-2003 Honda Magna.

Re: How about some pics of 88-98 Trucks
 

Finally signed up as I have been lurking for quite a while. Always been fond of 88-98's but love other years as well.
My wife and I ordered our '98 stepside on the very last day you could order back in '98. For some reason GM wouldn't put a 350 in the truck due to CAFE rules. They even sent a letter to the dealer stating why, and I still have it. It's got a 305, AC, automatic, 3:42's and little else. Roll up windows and manual door locks.
We had planned to use it as an everyday vehicle hence the rain drip guards on the side windows, body side mouldings and the rear lid.
Falling in love with the truck kept us from using it everyday. It's only got 33K miles on it and has never seen salt. We have every single piece of paperwork and the original brochure. The bed doesn't have a scratch.
It's got the Hotchkis TVS system which lowers it 2/4. Cragar s/s mags, custom bent cat-back, hood pins and a chrome cup tach on the dash too for a traditional look. We kept the original wheels and springs.
My everyday driver is an '01 set up similarly. I love that one too....

Re: How about some pics of 88-98 Trucks
 

Fu....

Stunning Stepside! The contours on the 88-98 series can't be beat.

On Labor Day 1992, I was within an 1/8" of an inch of buying a '92 Ford (Iris colored) Flareside but the deal fell through. Thank goodness!

It's cool to see someone who's fallen in love with (and taken care of) the same classic stepside lines as me.

Take care of that beauty....

Re: How about some pics of 88-98 Trucks
 

Thanks Chromer! The truck lives a charmed life. Never intentionally out in the rain. Heated garage etc. My wife is crazy about it too. She even calls it "hers".
No '92 Ford Flareside for you? How come? Too many vehicles? If that's the case don't feel bad. I have six!

Re: How about some pics of 88-98 Trucks
 

Hey JB1016............

OMG, you found my long lost brother!!!!! Thanks for sharing the ad. I have only seen one other 94 Sierra GT for sale and it was an extended cab version for $18,000 that was located in MI. This stepside isn't as clean as mine....the interior looks like it went through hell!!!But, I do like the mods the onwer did. If I do not sell mine, it will get a 383 stroker and a 6 speed. For now, I would like to sell it and pick up a 71 Chevelle SS 402 covt that I have been looking at.


Hey FU...........

The Cragars look freakin' awesome on the truck!!!! :c2:

Re: How about some pics of 88-98 Trucks
 

Hey SJCharney, Thanks! I've always loved Cragars. Must be my age ;) I remember as a kid in the sixties how popular they were.
I like the look of your Sierra GT. I think you should keep it AND pick up that Chevelle.......

Re: How about some pics of 88-98 Trucks
 

FU........

I wish!!! You may have to talk to my boss (wife) about that. I am only allowed two "toys" at the house. I have had teh truck since new and I kinda have grown bored of it. My 06 Denali crew cab has caused this. Plus I need the $$$ from the truck sale to assist in buying the Chevelle SS convt. It will look great next to my 70 Chevelle SS in the garage.

BTW, old school does rule............I was born in the late 60's and I am an old school hot rodder. My Chevelle is old school with her few mods......cragars, headers, etc..........

It locked the first post and wont let me edit it. If someone will delete teh first one that would be great

Re: How about some pics of 88-98 Trucks
 

SJCharney, Don't feel bad, my wife is the "boss" around here. She's pretty lenient though. Aside from my two trucks I have an '07 and a '70 Corvette plus a Harley Davidson. She's a cool "boss" with her Mustang GT.
I'd love to see a picture of your '70 Chevelle.......

Re: How about some pics of 88-98 Trucks
 

Hey cttandy, that cherry bomb sounds pretty fierce ;)

Re: How about some pics of 88-98 Trucks
 

Thanks, I need to get a better sound clip of my wifes 6.2L diesel with straight pipes. It will rattle your brain.

If your in the house when she comes home the entire house shakes.
