    Old #7 - OR -Building a work truck

    (Warning; the following post is most likely rambling and incoherent and you will have a hard time finding a subject at times. Bear with me, it will be a total waste of time.) For a little over a year I have had a 97 Suburban (Moby) that has been no end of trouble. When it ran it was great. We...

    Meet Moby

    After coming to the realization that with my wrecked back, it might take quite a while to get one of my myriad of other Suburbans running again. I began in earnest a search for a new tow pig. I was in the market for a k2500 350 with barn doors. I drove many miles looking at trucks that were...

    The IronHorse

    With the untimely death of the JollyGreenGiant, I did some shuffling around, and moved the IronHorse into the carport. The IronHorse is a 1999 (I think I have so many it gets hard to keep up) K2500Suburban. It is a work truck so it has vinyl seats, roll up windows, and rubber floormats. A...

    The JollyGreenGiant.

    So yet another Suburban is rolling. About a year and a half ago I bought this truck for $800 from a guy. It had a bad trans, and they had been living in it. IT sat in the yard for awhile, then it went to the shop. After almost a year in a buddy's transmission shop - free repair - I got the...

    My 88 Shortbed build

    I had a woman call me to come clear some scrap metal out of her yard. Under a tree was an 88 Chevy short bed with about 3 feet of pine needles covering it. I gave her $500 and left with it. It had to work on the way home. We loaded 4 work benches on it. I towed it behind my 94 Chevy Suburban...

    69?? Chevy stepside parts (Crouse, NC)

    I did some trading and came up with a lot of parts for what I believe is a 69 pickup. Very little rust. One door (drivers if I remember correctly) has had the hinge welded on. It worked perfect on the truck. Bed has been rebuilt with heavy steel on front, floor, and tailgate. Back glass is in...

    Oops I did it again

    Well, I bought another one. Another 94 Chevy Suburban. This one has a trashed transmission. I am going to use it for parts for the WarBeast when I get ready to fix it back up. I should have about everything I need. And the best part. I only paid $500 for it.

    My "new" 94 K2500 Suburban

    I bought another one Adding to my growing collection of Suburbans I stumbled into a deal on a 94 Suburban I couldn't pass up. The WarBeast is getting a bit well worn and has been doing a good job of towing even though it wasn't made for it. Not to mention that the engine is knocking, the rear...

    Fun weekend but she runs again

    Well the Beast has been dumping oil out of the front seal, but it has been slow till recently. It got to the point where it would start to rattle and the oil pressure would drop and I would stop and dump in two quarts of oil and drive away. Since I have been busier than a one armed paper hanger...

    New tahoe

    Picked up a 96 Chevy Tahoe yesterday. Fully loaded 5.7 vortec. 180000 miles. Has a bad tranny, broken drivers interior door handle, broken exterior passengers door handle, and broken passengers mirror. Runs great. I should be able to get the trans fixed cheaply enough since I am working on the...
