Starting another thread, build thread is at like 2,311 posts, double posts out the ass. Anyways, got the truck 12/24/11 with 241,177 on the clock, sits here 8/7/12 with 252,231. Truck is a 2003 Silverado 1500, 5.3 Vortec, Z71, LT, loaded, heated leather, Bose, etc. Driven by one guy that used it cross country traveling for his job, so mostly all highway miles. Org engine/trans/diffs.
Maintenance wise, it had a water pump and fuel pump replaced before it got to me. Since i've had it it's had an A/c Clutch, Blower motor resistor, New Bose amp, Rebuilt starter, and normal oil changes.

[gmc00z]

i like how you two toned the console, going to carry it over to the dash?

 

[Sanative]

Yeah thinking about doing the dash bezel black because it has some bad wear spots i didn't notice when i got it from the junkyard. If i dont like it ill just buy a better condition one. but i two toned it because my roof is going to be all black suede, delete handles and visors

 

[brandon750]

gonna look sick when you get that hood.

looks good as is

 

[lhuck38]

That headliner is gonna look good too!

 

[Sanative]
