[Metal_Manatee]

Got a pretty 1995 c1500 regular cab with the 5.0 and a 5-speed. Not really looking to mess with the engine while it's still running great. 170K+ miles and looks great.

What was done when I bought it:
-Paint
-Headlight/taillight fixtures
-Wheels/tires
-exhaust
-new clutch
-new breaks
-Window tint
-Stupid stereo

-Installed double din stereo with android auto
-Added 6x9s with amp
-replaced reverse light switch
-LED reverse light
-Replaced driver/passenger door locks
-Replaced driver window motor
-Replaced driver lock actuator
-converted heat/ac control with 96-99
-installed a backup camera
-replaced ignition cylinder
-replaced ignition switch
-replaced ignition control module

To Do:
-replace control arms/ball joints (parts ready)
-replace the rag-joint steering shaft
-bed liner
-repair/replace dash
-repair/replace ashtray
-passenger side window/lock buttons
-replace side view mirror buttons
-door trim
-replace center console with one that can store stuff

Things I want but will probably never do:

"Upgrade carburetor to fuel injection"
-Your truck should already be fuel injected, Throttle Body Injection to be exact. Unless of course someone messed with it, is it stock? Underhood pics would help. If it is indeed stock, I'd leave it. I'm a pretty big fan of TBI. It is one of the most simple and reliable systems out there. There is strength in simplicity.
