Well after being stuck with my thunderbird way too long and giving up on it, it finally sold a little while ago and I think went to a good home. Havnt seen someone that excited about one of my cars in a long time.
So while going back and fourth for what seemed like forever on what to get, e28, e30, m3, another mk3 (I had like 15) I finally found something that was more interesting to me on craigslist and more kind of what I was looking for. Just couldn't see owning another European car for a while after taking a long break. Also wanted to stick with something American for a while cuz the v8 is kinda fun.
So here is my 91 chevy extended cab on bags.
5 speed
350 v8
no interior other than 2 random seats which one was wrapped in a snuggie cuz it was only foam.
I forgot to take many pics like I should have. It was a good price, and yes the wheels are terrible.
Here is when I first picked it up. Yes the tonneau cover was falling off for the ride home and was duct taped on for a quick fix.
The air ride "worked" but had some serious issues. Not sure if they guy was lied to about what was installed, or he just lied to me. I thought at first oh I will just leave it alone and spend the money elsewhere, but after a few days I couldn't take it anymore so I swapped in manual paddle valves which was too slow.
Unknown compressors which had no leader lines or filters and were very small (would randomly shut off and come back on, ghetto wiring, old valves which were only front back and handled like crap. supposed to be a 10 gal tank which was no and probably had about 1/2 a gal of rusty water in it.
After we pulled the bed, we hit the junkyard for an interior. Ended up getting everything other than the carpet (going back just couldn't handle being there anymore after fighting with too many bolts) for $40.
And one more of just the truck.
