Introduction
I've been lurking here for some time. I enjoy the forum very much. I live in Kansas and I am retired and I am pretty boring so about the truck that brought me here. It is an 87 Silverado 4X4, fully loaded with A/C, P/W, P/L. tilt wheel and cruise. The quadra jet carb had to be replaced and that was done with an Edlebrock designed for that purpose and I have added dual exhast. Here are a couple of pictures of it.

Re: Introduction
WELCOME to the greatest place on the web...
I agree - that is a NICE truck. The colors are great, and the fact that it's a LWB truck gets my vote. I love the front clip (with the 4-lamp rectangular headlights) and the red line that really pops. All in all, one great looking ride. |

Re: Introduction
Hey, what's wrong with 35s and 6" lift? I do agree with you tho, a truck like that should never see suspension mods, in any direction.

I did a little swapping to get the work done. I am somewhat frugal (some would say cheap). The mufflers came off of a new Ford (hope that is spelled right) and they give it a great sound. I am thrilled with the result. |
