Nice!

Looks good man. Those SS wheels look sharp on there, both before the drop and after.

Re: 1998 GMC Project "Greenhorn"
 

I always dug those wheels my dad had them on his 97 chevy ecsb. Man do I miss that truck. He bought it brand new. The 4l60e crapped out at 103k. So my mom got a 01 alero. And I never saw the truck again. I always liked the Jimmys better than the Chevys.

Painting interior trim is just tacky, It never turns out good, rest of the truck looks good though.

Re: 1998 GMC Project "Greenhorn"
 

after i sanded the dash and all the handels smooth and resprayed... they turned out realy good. But ive had it that way for over a year now.. and im starting to get bored with it. Looking to go back to all stock except my custom guage panel. Maybe with some billet accesories here and there.

Re: 1998 GMC Project "Greenhorn"
 

any updates on this?

Re: 1998 GMC Project "Greenhorn"
 

got interior back to stock.... ill get some pics, the crate motor thats in it might be cooked. Literally she over heated realy quickly, then cooled down realy fast, it was -20C out... going to look into it more tommorow...
