Re: 1998 Silverado 2WD, nicknamed "Deadman"

Well, it looks like snow anyday now so I don't know how much longer I'll be working on it this winter...once salt is spread on the roads here for ice, I'll put it in storage and start working on my '87 SWB as it fits in my garage better and leaves enough space to work around it.

Anyways, I ran into a HUGE problem with the '98 when I was shaving the door handles that I need to get fixed asap (yes the door panel got too hot while I was mig welding with too thick a wire and the panel sucked in.)

Let this be a warning to everyone not to do what I did!!!

I did take pics but I'm too pi$$ed off at myself to post them yet to show everyone what a moron I was that day...

If I can fix that panel and put in all the sound barrier yet this fall I'd be happy. I might make the sub box / console as well this winter, but only if I get bored with the '87.
