Here's my '99 that wouldn't run because of the security system. I rewired it for a '96 computer. I also put tow hooks on the front.

GM got it right with the Nineties trucks. Still the best looking to me. I have a 96 Z71 SCSB but can't find a pic of it now or would have attached it. I gotta fix that.

Here is my 94 that I'm slowly plugging away at. Each time I get some money accumulated I buy another batch of OEM GM parts for it. I'm trying to get what I want before Chevrolet quits selling them.

Nice ! Is there a build thread on this one?
I have a 93 RCSB fleetside I picked up last year.
Came from Alabama and ended up in Connecticut after a couple year stop in Ohio. Not a speck of rust or rot anywhere on it.

No build thread on this one. I don't take many pictures anymore. I've been just keeping my head down and working on stuff.

Thank you sir.

With the rate that OBS trucks are appreciating nowadays I figured I better get me one last truck while I can still barely afford it. I'm going to retire soon so I need something to focus on anyway.

Very nice truck. I think I said this before, but these OBS trucks look better to me than the new trucks.

Hey Kevin. I've got my eye on a GMC sportside near the same color as yours I hope to snag before long.
Care to share your drop and stance specs?

Sure.

It's a 5/6 drop with DJM front coils, Belltech spindles, Belltech flip kit and Belltech Nitro-Drop shocks all around.

Wheels are stock with 255/60 and 275/60 Cooper Cobra (Coopacabra) tires.

It sits a little bit better now that the front springs have settled in. Drives great. No bumps or bangs, no grinding or rubbing under any conditions.

Perfect stance, thanks for the info, looking to do the same on my 93.

My 2000 K2500. I would have loaded more pics but it wouldn't let me.

Sharp rig Roy! I'm still on the hunt for the right CCSB Sierra K2500.

Not sure I've posted my long roof on here or not.

1999 GMC Suburban K2500 SLT, my daily driver.

Hey Kevin, thanks.
I finally did get a sportside but not the gold one I was looking at. This one is even better. It was my Mom and Dad's 91. I don't plan to do much to it other than maybe wheels and tires then try to keep it nice as long as I can. A carport might be in order. ;)

Thought I'd throw in a pic of my "new-to-me" '89 Cheyenne. When I sold my '80 Squarebody, I figured I was done working (playing?) on vehicles, being 74 and retired, but NOOOO. Found this and figured just one more before I can't hold a wrench anymore. It's got an ailing trans. and a transplanted 305 from sometime in its' past. I put in a 2/4 drop and have a nice low mile 4.8/4L60E sitting on the garage floor that will get swapped as soon as the trans dies altogether. May keep the wheel covers, 'cause every truck I see has custom wheels

Awesome short beds, guys. Here's my 91 that I sold last year - great truck came from central FL in 2010 when I bought it. Very dependable DD for 10 years but the cab corners were getting bad.

Also is a pic of my newest purchase, a 93 K2500 Suburban. I'll get more pics of it posted when I get a chance to take some more.

Re: How about some pics of 88-98 Part II
 
Nice Suburban. Even though what I really need is an economical vehicle for commuting, I keep having thoughts of finding a nice clean K2500 while I still can. Right now at the used car lot at the country corner is a '94 GMC K2500 SLE White with blue interior, same as my '95. I'm afraid to go ask about it. Really clean, nice. Would be great to have one to work and one to keep nice. Better go get some work done around here
