Dad's '98 Resto

[98BlackSierra]

Not much of an update other than I’ve been driving the truck. It’s been running great, still running water through the system flushing out the old coolant and crud. I’m thinking toward the end of the week I’ll install the new parts.

Photos of how she sits after the alignment. My biggest decision at the moment is trying to decide if I want to put the Ventshades back on the doors or. Or. My dad loved them and I used to, but I think it looks cleaner without. Thoughts?

I think those ventshades look good ..not gaudy as some do .....

I like vent visors but im also a smoker so theyre more of a function thing for me

I'm not a fan of ventshades, I like a clean look!

Was going through old photos tonight. Didn’t realize how many of these trucks I’ve owned or my family has owned.

I like the clean look, but you could get the in-channel ones, which look way sleeker. Thought about getting in-channels for my truck.

I’ve been busier than ever the past few weeks it seems, so I haven’t had any time to change the water pump. We had our gender reveal this past weekend so the truck sat, but on a positive note.....we’re having a girl!!!

Have tonight and tomorrow off so I pulled the truck into the barn and gave it a detail. The first time ever that it has seen a clay bar lol. Anyway, the paint looks great except for the rockers lol. She still cleans up good for her age.

Nice, clay bars do wonders dont they. I just clayed my truck for the first time last year and I was amazed how good 25 year old paint can clean up!
