Re: Project 94 Z71 ECSB

Good luck! Glad to hear everyone is OK. I'm rebuilding my truck after I wrecked it but it wasn't that bad.

Re: Project 94 Z71 ECSB

yeah its really not worth it BUT, I have almost enough parts to do it so it will keep cost WAY down. But its gonna be alot of work. He is gonna start taking the interior out... then get bed and front clip off and then cab. Lots of work to do for sure.

Yeah that would work then the only reason I restored mine was sentimental value. Good luck hope it works out.

Re: Project 94 Z71 ECSB

Would have rather hit the deer than roll it but it was a good lesson learned. But like Uncole said, round 2! And round 2 is always better than round 1! Will keep updated on the truck as much as possible!

This is the parts truck I bought. I took the cab off of it and put it on my original frame. Im still using the dash out of my truck because the wiring is better on it.
