sweet ride babe, man theres no girs in new zealand with trucks like yours haha, sweet ride, love your style



check out my new silverado, i posted just before you did

Chevys are so uncommon over here, not many at all, as when they come in we have to convert to right hand drive, that costs around 10 grand and then any parts we have to ship from the states all the way to Australia then to new zealand

anyway hope u like my one

Always loved the look of 4x4 step sides with big meats filling the wheel welds.  Nice truck, any picks of the working side of the wood bed?

I read the post a couple back asking about the "odd" shock installation.  I went back and looked 3 times before finally reading the post that pointed out one was upside down before I could see a problem.  Guess its time for bed for me.

I don't know about the shock thing lol.. I haven't really gotten to drive my truck all that much since I got it in Oct.. I didn't wanna screw it up even more.

I have 16 in wheels with 38 in tires on there right now.

I went out there and looked at my hard brake line and I guess its just the pic because its straight lol.

LOL.. ya the doorpanels were all messed up so I had to find a fabric to cover them with for the time bein til I can afford new ones.. But it matches my seat covers, i have the mossy oak ones with the pink trim  ;D 
its original LOL
