Thz71's C3500HD build

[CustomMetalWorks]

Bye bye w/t front end. I have all the parts here to convert over to 94+ silverado front end for free. I wish I wouldn't have sold my tows.

Using the chrome grille that I plasti dipped red for my 95 now painting it white. I'll eventually buy a color matched grille just trying to save money since I just bought a house. So I repainted the inserts and emblem. I need new corners and turns asap I'll look tonight

My ultimate dream truck would be a c3500hd crew cab with either an 8.1 or a duramax with a regular bed on it. A junkyard 30 miles away has one rotting away without an engine or a bed, someday I should buy it and invest way too much of my time and money into it. It's a 96 too, used to have a 6.5, and the big thing to be about that - smog exempt in California!

That looks like a good start! If mine was a crew cab I'd prob never sell it.

That would be perfect, especially being pre-diesel smog.
Where'd you say that was and how much are they asking?

No kidding! Luckily in my county (Lassen) we only have smogs when we buy/sell a vehicle, if it was every two years like down there my Dodge would fail lol (check engine light for some emissions bs).

In Chester, CA. Go to Highway 36 off of I-5 from Red Bluff and go 70ish miles, right before Chester the junkyard is on your left across from the Airport. That should be descriptive enough lol.

He doesn't sell whole vehicles unfortunately, maybe once his sons take over I'll have a better chance
