What's new

What did you do to your GM today?

Actually got off my ass and did some things today.

Poked the hole for the shifter.
Threw the winch bumper back on so it was off the floor and out of the way.
Built the support cradle to hold the 4500 on the jack.

Just picked this up the earlier in the week, been fixing all the little things.

Seeing the pictures of that brings back a lot of good memories. My uncle, who past away last year had a mid 80s 3/4 ton suburban just like that one same running board and two-tone but his was light blue dark blue. He always kept it really clean, and hauled the entire extended family aunts, uncle, kid etc to all the fairs, races, local events. The adults up front and the kids mostly in the cargo area.

What are your plans for it?
 
What are your plans for it?

I've been daily driving it since someone tried to steal my ranger last week.

Here's a short list of things I need to do

-Find 2 hub caps so it's completed in look
-The speedo "ticks" so I'm gonna try to lube the cable
  • fuel sending unit is reading irregular 40gal tank
  • factory radio is hit n miss with working
  • rear brake lights aren't working but cruise control does, figured it just needs new bulbs
-full clay bar and detail interior

This thing is a time capsule
Both front seats are almost perfect/ including the other 3 rows of seats, headliner is legit, dash is perfect no cracks or holes, it drives amazing and not one spot of cancer found yet.

I'll most likely sell it for a profit or trade it for other cool stuff. Right now I'm just enjoying it. Had some offers already from friends but I've turned them down. I was amazed that it passed smog with really low numbers on Monday.
