How about some pics of 88-98 Trucks

[Gary]

I just joined the 88-98 club, picked up a 1997 C3500 quad cab dually, 6.2 turbo diesel, everything works, needs tires, an oil change soon (it's 3000 since last) and a tranny flush sometime soon too (it's been a year or so since the last one, probably needs one within 10K more miles at least). I bought it so I could reliably pull big things, car trailer mostly, planning on getting into SCCA club racing next year and need a good tow vehicle.

Did I get hurt bad at $5500? I looked for a better deal but all the other trucks in this league/year range/mileage range were running 7K+.

This is my '92 454 "SS". It has a 4/6 drop, shaved tailgate and door handles, smooth front bumber, cowl induction hood and billet specialties wheels. This truck has only 17,000 miles on it.

This is my '98 Short bed Chevy with about 7,000 miles on it. It has a 4/6 drop and smooth front bumper and has budnik billet wheels on it.

This is my '99 Tahoe which has been lowered 4/6 inches. Other mods include a shaved rear tailgate, removed rear window wiper, rolled pan, smooth front bumber, cowl hood and billet wheels. This is my daily driver.

Killer truck. I like it. Good luck on your future endevor. Judging from what I've seen, I'm sure your dash will be top notch. Keep in touch, let me know how it turns out. Thanks again, Dave

What wheel/tire size combo you got on this one? BS on the wheels too, if you still know it..

[Jeep & GMC]

Original_balzer, that is a sweet truck, I like all of the trucks, but it is good to see more 4x4s. I love that front bumper, it goes well with your truck.

[SiCk_DiAbLo]

Nice trucks in here...Mine is pretty much stock!

here's my 94 Z71

Hey here's my '89 chevy chyenne pickup longbed STD cab. The pics are kinda old so a lot of stuff is revamped, especially the interior.

(It's a 2500 but the guy that originally ordered it at the dealership made them customize it and make it a 1 ton. I think he did this for lower registration costs or something, but nonetheless it's a 1 ton that looks like a 3/4 ton.)
