Hey all! I’m Trevor, I live in North Carolina and I’m originally from Boston Mass. Lived there from birth until I was 18 and I moved south in 2009. For the past 6 months I’ve been searching for a 4th gen GM pickup and I finally found “the one”. It’s a 1990 Chevrolet k1500, straight drive, single cab, short box. I really wanted a 1990 bc it’s the year I was born. It has minimal rust and plenty of problems but it runs and drives. Took it home for $1000.
The past 6 months I’ve been on here frequently looking through all the troubleshooting threads trying to learn everything I can about these trucks. I’ve always had a soft spot for 90s GMs.
I’d like to get the truck running smoothly to make it a fun weekend truck for my wife & I. Hopefully it’ll stay with us for a very long time.
I daily drive a 2016 Subaru Impreza Sport. I’ve had Subarus for over 10 years. We also have a 2012 Chevy Tahoe LTZ.
Here’s a few pictures of her as she sits.
It currently has 32” Falken Wildpeak A/T tires. I put one of my old radios in the dash to get rid of the big hole and threw some of my stickers on the back glass. I gave it a good wash, vacuum, and cleaned up the dash.
I’m excited to really dig into her and start fixing her up.
The motor has some sort of knock. So that and all the safety aspects are first on the list. I’m gonna freshen up all the lights inside & out, tint the windows, lift it 2”, and enjoy it.
