I like the gray paint on the engine. Looks good sitting in there.

 

I agree, that all looks great Trav, well done so far

 

Thanks guys. I plan to run it like this for a while once it is together then add headers, dual exhaust, electric fan, trick flow 170cc heads, some 4.56 or 4.10 gears, and 1.7 roller rockers.
First got to take care of some of the other things like stereo, speedometer fixed, brush guard installed, and fix the drivers door pins.
Dad also got that dent you see in the lower part of the bed out on my 88.


It sucks that I will be driving the GMC for a week or two till I get paid for a few more things (thermostat and fluids.)

Haven't done much since I bought it just under a year ago.
But once I get all the internals squared away and working properly. It'll be a beast...hopefully

 

Good lookin truck Alex

 

Just bought on GovDeals the other day, '95 XL 5.0 automatic. I took off the bedside toolboxes this weekend. Here's the auction page: GovDeals

 

Looks like a good solid truck, welcome to FTE

 

Hi, new to the forum. I sold my much loved 2003 eddie bauer expedition last year because I felt she was too nice to only use occasionally for antiquing trips. Yesterday I bought this beauty, and I don't know much about her. 182k miles, runs smooth and strong.



I've named her Pilar. First vehicle I have ever named

 

Good looking truck Scarlett! What year is she?

 

Great lookin truck Scarlett & welcome to FTE

 

1994. I Feel like such a luddite, I think this is an extended cab, right? Dual tanks that I'll need to figure out and get used to. The only real issue is a clean but shot bench seat that I need to do something about. I need more support!

 

super cab.extended cab is chevy's term.easy way to remember that is; fords are super but,chevy needed an extension.
the 4 door is known as the crew cab.nice truck.which engine and trans?

 

Actually it's a SuperCab ("extended cab" is a Ch*vy term, we try to discourage such profanity here ). Nice looking ride!

By the way, the simplest seat swap is to get another front seat out of either another SuperCab truck or a Bronco. The regular cab and crew cab seats don't fit in as easily.

edit: I guess FORDF250HDXLT types faster than me

 

Funniest part is I was sitting here waiting to see whom would be first for that clarification. LOL
I'd love to find a truck exactly like that just stick shift, 351W, and a 96. Very nice truck.

Thanks! I was looking into captains chairs but now reading these threads I realize that is pretty ambitious. So I'll be looking for a bronco bench with the center console. I did try and figure out what cab and thought super meant 4 doors. I am not at all a chevy truck gal so will not make that mistake again
