oh yea, NICE interior!  can't wait until i get some work done on mine.  it's not that mine's in bad shape, it's actually in good shape...but its BROWN (Mahogany according to the General) and it's a vinyl bench with a black rubber floormat and base model door panels...mine is just a Sierra...

That front looks great! I've always liked that look. What happened to your hood, though? It looks bad scratched.

Don't hate me :( - I kind of like the old look :-\  Maybe it's the bumper...

Nice looking truck man.  I like the old grille look too, but that suburban grille looks nice too.

JJSZABO, Thank you for catching that it's just as easy to type in another word as opposed to that.  I think we all get the picture of what may have happen to the compressor.
