My 93 CCSSB
 
Well Thanks to my buddy Joe (joe231) he ran across this thing this morning on his way to work and send my a pic. I have been looking for one for a while now but most of them are way out of my price range and i didn't want another payment..... So i picked him up at lunch and we went to check it out, she has some problems but if we were worked like this ol work truck has been we would too :lol: it has a 454 tbi and auto trans, and with a little negotiating we drove it home for $400. :metal:
I will post more pics in the daylight tomorrow.

Good deal for alot of truck. Comes out to about 7 cents a pound. Good luck parking it though.

So, a C1500 chassis equivalent with a StepSide (Sportside) bed, dropped on bags with some 20's. Maybe a RangeRover grille conversion.....

I had only seen them in the LMC catalog until last weekend when wife and I went to Longview, TX. As we were coming home on US80 and were almost to US59, I saw an '88-98 headed west on 80, with the range rover lighting mod. Then, as we sat at the intersection, another '88-98 with the same mod came west and headed south towards Houston. From a catalog to two examples in minutes....whoooodathunkit?

I still don't know how to feel about it, but it looked better as it was being driven away from me than it did head-on....:lol:

Stepside??? :no:


Tell Travis he can have it for $4500 :devil:

BGRAFX 10-30-2009 01:52 PM

Re: My 93 Crewcab Build
 
Thats a steal for sure, so many upgrade options available for those years of trucks. the new range rover fronts look good in black. or the escalade clips. Stepside would look sick too.

Congrats Man!

I bet you can make some money off that headache rack.

BIGphillip79 10-30-2009 08:50 PM

Re: My 93 Crewcab Build
 
Definately need to jack the seats out of a burb, with all that back seat no need for a bench up front. Make it a 2+2, That'd be nice.

No what would also look sweet. I nice drop and once you shortin it a clean aluminum flat bed set up. I seen a fleet of company trucks for a glass co set up like that. The trucks were all black, with polished flat beds and nice mags. They were like show work trucks.

Re: My 93 Crewcab Build
 
Is that a ford I see your driveway in one of your pics. Blaspheme!

highperf4x4 10-30-2009 09:14 PM

Re: My 93 Crewcab Build
 
I can't believe you found the truck I need for work and now you're going to chop it up!!!! :lol:

They had a red one down the street from me at a car lot that is almost identical to this one including the 454 and tranny but it was gone before I could stop and ask about it. I'm sure they wanted too much for it though.

highperf4x4 10-31-2009 01:18 AM

Re: My 93 Crewcab Build
 
Yeah, I have some damage on both sides of mine. You gonna make me a fancy bed lift? :D

joe231 10-31-2009 01:24 AM

Re: My 93 Crewcab Build
 
:lol:

make it dump, or lift stuff into the bed? or to lift the bed off and set it back on?

highperf4x4 10-31-2009 01:35 AM

Re: My 93 Crewcab Build
 
A lift for the bed swap, and allow me to change my fuel sending unit while we're at it! :metal:

joe231 10-31-2009 01:43 AM

Re: My 93 Crewcab Build
 
I just used 2 ratchet straps diagonal forming a X in the middle and I hooked a engine picker to the middle of the X...but with a long bed the picker might be too short to reach.....

This one is in pretty good shape, not as good as the first one but it definitely usable. I even know a guy that could paint it to match ;)
