Budget 1991 V3500 refresh..

[52napco]

Posted my 1991 V3500 for sale in several places and got a lot of smartass comments on Facebook with several so called truck guys calling it junk 😡.. so It motivated me to prove a point..
A tank of fuel in the pressure washer revealed an absolutely
mint rust free body and a Jasper reman engine..
Next is a new switching valve to get it running then I'll put my
4" Skyjacker frt springs on and my ORD shackle flip
With my white steelies and hubcaps..then off to my buddy for
Media blasting then epoxy primer and single stage dark blue
Air force paint...enjoy the pics

Took the bed off for media blasting..truck is super straight

It's amazing how juvenile social media can be. Anybody who knows anything about trucks and pays the least bit of attention would know that they had a worthwhile rig if they had that truck. It'll be cool to see what you do with it.

Truck is running great...have found an original paint bed and I'm going to use both the perfect besides from it with my super nice bed floor and it will be ready for cruising..
Next week 4" lift and 16x9 steelies with 255 85 16 tires

Nice truck. So it's a gasser and not a 6.2?

[52napco]

Yes 5.7 TBI with 4L80 and 205

Ignore the yahoos and take the money from the guy who appreciates it!

[52napco]

I'm gonna keep it...ordered a new dash and seat cover from USA1....4" lift next week and my stellies and hubcaps

[1972K20]

I like it.

I have a 88 V30 Air Force truck, but with the 6.2 Diesel.

[52napco]

I'm plugging along on it...in between sprucing up interior in my 1972 K20 Suburban.
Lift kit and shocks last week..waiting on my blaster to get my wheels done so my
buddy can powder coat them...got my dash seat cover and inner fender and new grille last week

[Willowrun]

What color is the interior?

[52napco]

It's blue and has had ac added..

[52napco]

Amazing what a difference the 4" softride lift and 305 70 16s on steelies make.
Truck sits for months at a time and fires right up..
I'll get a few rednecks to help set the bed back on tmrw

Digging your truck. Tires and lift goes a long way to change the look. Did you do anything with the ORD shackle flip to help with the pinion angle or to get the axle back in its original location? I’ve got the shackle flip on my 3+3 but haven’t added any shims or axle offset plates yet.

[52napco]

Actually the flip should negate the need for shims since it kicks the rear down..it's actually pretty smooth down the road.
