Congrats bud! :cheers:

BGRAY

This is the truck of my Dreams....I have wanted one since my old S10, and Had a terrible time to finding one in Canada. I was going to go South to Find a Truck in the southern states, but I stumbled across this White, 99 RCSB 5.3 4l60E G80 Truck with a dirty low kilometer count of 60,000kms. It had a few tasteless modifications done, but it was a perfect base. Most RCSB’s in Canada are long boxes, 4x4's, or 4.3 & 4,8's...so this was a rarity to find. Here is a picture of when I first got it back in Late October of 2006...

The mod list was huge, and I just finished the truck a week ago. I have had a pretty good luck with the truck thus far, and absolutely love it. The history of the truck isn’t that comprehensive compared to some other members, but I am very proud of it. I have my Dad, buddies, and my wallet to thank. Especially up here in Canada, with the lack of truck experts and abundance of F-body guys proved sometimes to be a struggle for parts and advice. However, without Performance Trucks.Net this trucks Drive train would not be what it is today!

Some of modifications I like the most are my GMC cut HD Chevy hood, and my motor and Drive train work. All of the work, minus the transmission rebuild and paint work was done by myself and buddies.

from another thread about totm

So the winner is posted now. Let me take a moment to explain what happened with this months contest.

BGray was the only one that was selected that chose to participate in the contest. I tried to get several backup candidates as well, and they declined. So, he's our winner this month.

Hopefully this won't happen again, but if it does, don't blame it on me. :)

Very nice truck man. Just a quick (dumb) question though. Do the HDs have that hood for any reason? Or just to distinguish it from the front>

bgray
06-15-2007, 10:07 PM
im pretty sure its jsut a distingushing factor
