red_97
Newbie
Just picked up a 1 owner 94 z71 ecsb 5.7 tbi truck with 141k miles on it. My father inlaw purchased it new and just upgraded and wanted it gone, scooped it up for 1000 bucks. It HAS rust, spent its whole life in michigan, but the interior is mint and mechanically its solid and well taken care of. I wasnt in the market, but have been obs-less for about a year and miss my old 97, ive never been a fan of the 88-94 interior but its already growing on me. The two tone(red center, black top/bottom) is what made me buy it, ive only ever seen one other in my area. The father inlaw is a huge Earnhardt fan hence why he chose this color, along with the 7 Earnhardt stickers all over the truck from 94 aswell( why i call the truck "intimidator") He had a topper put on it when he bought it from the dealer and its never left the bed in the last 25yrs until today i removed to clean back windows. But put back on for now. My plans are as follow
*LED lights for all interior/exterior
*rust repair and repaint on lower portion of truck
*clean and coat frame
*seat covers to save seats from kid/work
*17" 07 classic rims on 285s mt's
*crank just enough to be level
*window tint
*tonneau cover
*replace bumpers with clean stocks
*MAYBE smoked lights front and back
*MAYBE a nice sounding exhaust.
Thats about sums up where i want to be with the truck. Its such a good running, smooth well kept truck i want to keep it original yet do some slightly tasteful mods that accent it instead of butchering it. I will get some pics and upload them shortly, i only have my android phone so i need to learn how to do that yet. If anyone has any recommendations or ideas about my mods or things to set the truck off im open to ideas and changes. Thanks
