Best Friend's Silverado.


Recommended Posts

Your friend...does he by any chance post on GMT400.com? That truck looks familiar...

not sure. but he is a chevy guy and im a ford guy so we would post on different forums. he has shown me some pretty cool chevys on the S10 forums and maybe even GMT400. He has pretty much changed all his marker lights to green even his clearance lights. He has a bunch of strobes on it and i swear he changes the window decals weekly.... The thing is locked up in storage though for winter.... He drives a little blue s10 i wanna say its an 88 as his winter driver/school vehicle. I had more picture of his truck that werent sourced from facebook but they were on my old phone and it died.... Here's one right after he got the truck with his old truck that got scrapped.

So i had a little time to mess around with it. i set the frame where i thought it should be then made the front suspension. It still utilizes the promo axle but kinda looks like a lifted chevy front end I call it a promo lift. Oh and workin on some scratch fender flares. If it seems a little high to you guys i guess it is future truck because within the next 2 years he plans to lift it more than just cranked torsion bars and big tires.

Got some more work done. gotta make tow mirrors, tint rear windows and either do a roll bar or headache rack.10386825_984158194947443_469869422013017

also took the time to kinda replicate a picture from last summer, with my old truck my friend's 2013 f150 and friends taurus. but a raptor and cougar replaced the taurus.

Unfortunately that's not true. My promo 1997 C-3500 has the pre-1994 grille. I have two sealed 1996 snap C-3500s and both also appear to have the same pre-1994 grille. It looks like the Tahoe is the only one that was updated with the appropriate grille.
