Newest acquisition. 1990 GMC 3+3 3500 with 5.7L TBI. Straight truck with minimal surface rust. Very hard to find where I live. Interior is bone stock, I think this was a military vehicle at one point. Previous owner had a plow on the front and butchered the wiring harness. Currently re-furbishing the truck to stock condition and will plan on a mild lift with 33" tires in the future with a full re-paint. Some beautiful trucks in this thread for motivation ;)

This ones going on Ebay after I clean it up. Just brought it home.
Nice truck so maybe I can actually make a few dollars on something.LOL
Very clean and no rust! Im getting the top painted and may do some additional small stuff.
Luckily it was a short pull down back roads on that little trailer.
Enjoy the pics!

no... I tried. Fiat Red and Lexus silver... The GM colors did not offer the richness in color I was looking for...

I just re-wired and replaced all the lights on my tailgate. I just went to Oreillys and bought them off the rack. They had black mounts with red lights. They were $5-6/ each. They look great

Re: How about some pics of 73-91 crew cabs
 
I found them. Look just like OEM. Just the marker, no housing. Grote part # 46412 red. $2.50 ea. Grote.com

Ill install them and let you know how they are.

wlakerb I hope you keep it stock, there is a blue & white 86 4x4 just like yours on 21 of this thread that I think is one of the sharpest rigs around.

Agreed, that is a really sharp looking crew. The game plan as it stands currently is to leave the patina for now and lift it 2-4" with some new BF's. Thankfully its as close to stock as a truck can be and will stay that way.

Im fixing and clean interior now. I found a nice dash pad close to me so its getting there!

Hi guys, I'm new to this forum but not new to Chevy Trucks. Just got mine back on the road again after 6+ months of building / rebuilding. 1991 V3500, 496 Gen 6 BBC, 4L80E, single serpentine belt conversion off a 1995 - pretty much a wood / rock hauler / kid bouncer. I love it!

Where did the 496 BBC come from? Is it a TBI?

ecbert 06-21-2014 02:47 PM

Re: How about some pics of 73-91 crew cabs
 
Yes, it's still a TBI engine.

I built it, the block is a gen 6 454 from a 1997 Suburban, the heads are stock 1991 TBI heads, that I added SST swirl polished stock sized intake valves and 1.88" exh valves, the bottom end is SCAT externally balanced .030" over with the HO 454 hyd roller cam.

4" spring lift front / block lift rear with 33's on stock steel wheels.
