Just brought home my dads 1996 Silverado 1500 yesterday. 5.7 Vortex 97K original miles. Always garaged. Ready to add my personal touches to it. It came with a 16 foot 5th wheel car hauler and my grandpas original 1939 Ford which was his UNION 76 gas truck. It will become yard art!!

I would love to see how the old Ford looks after a good scrub. Simple Green and a scrub brush gotta do it.

Green 1/2ton 2wd with 5.7L? That's about as close to perfection as you get with 88-98's IMO. Sweet score. Wish my family had sweet trucks to give away!

Spent the weekend detailing the 96. Pretty easy to clean up when it has spent it whole life in a garage!! Time to add some personal touches.
