Been out the truck scene for a while and wanted a project to work on to get back into it. My first truck was a 1997 Chevy RCSB that I regretfully sold 6 years ago so I was in the market for another one. Found this one in NOLA, was in good shape so I bought it and drove it back home 2 hours away without any issues. On to the truck.

1997
4.3 v6
212,***
Was totaled but air bags never went off. Has new grille, lights, front bumper, left fender.

Repairs:
Speedometer is about 12 mph off.
Remove all chrome accessories. [DONE]
Seat is torn.
New blower motor.

Plans are to check all the fluids first, make sure every thing is running properly then start on the fun stuff:
4/7 drop
CM handles and mirrors.
Stock tails
Cleared lights.
New seat.
Change interior color to tan or dark grey.
20s
LED interior/exterior [done]

Nice truck but I was slightly confused by your title...RSCB? Regular Short Cab Bed? I get it now though.

Nice truck, I like it. Perhaps the rear end has been swapped with a different ratio?

Found a nice looking passenger leather seat from a 03. Now just need to find the driver side.

You can look in your glove box to see what rear end the truck came with, and jack it up and spin the tire to see what ratio it has. If thats all thats wrong you can just change the gear in the trans and problem solved!
