Talking Members Rides Thread.

Well wanted to start a thread where all memebers can post pictures of there trucks, cars, biks etc and give a little history on them.
here is my 93 c1500. Got the truck from my brother for $600 and have done a bit of work to it. Plans for the truck is to restore it back to stock with mouldings and trim and drop the hell out of it and update the engine later on.



post up guys..

One of the bikes not so stock


The quad no where near stock


And one of me boats not close to stock

I have a horsepower addiction

i'll bite and i'll even keep my post from being a couple build threads



99 Sierra - can't even begin... and it's my DD (174k)
bought almost stock 5 years ago (as of last week). everything i wanted minus 2 cylinders: RCSB, 4x4, GM, v6, manual trans.

swapped in a 5.3, full exhaust, intake, tune, soon-to-have bigger tires, maybe a cam, LEDs in almost everything (most of them purple), custom gauges by me, HID cleared Denali headlights, custom fogs, debadged, etc...

00 FRC Corvette - weekend fun

Bought the truck in April 2005 before going off to college, 40,000 miles. Blew up a rear diff at 54,000, put the cold air in while it was in the shop for that, first transmission died at 73,000, Another rear diff and the transmission @ 97,000. Cam/heads/efans/LTs/exhaust @ 154,000, transmission @ 158,000 so I swapped into a 3k stall and PBlvl2.

My first car/truck, a 1979 Ford Ranchero GT, 351w, edelbrock intake and carb, 9", and dual flowmasters, bought it for 500 bucks, great for burnout contest, teeboned a camry and insurance gave me $4000, heres my wreck pic

With that $4000 i bought my 1971 Buick GS, 51,000 original miles, stole it from the original owner for $2950, 455/th400 3.08 posi and a whole lotta torque, also great for burnout contest, lost it in a divorce, I miss this car


While i had the GS, i wanted to preserve it for car shows, so i bought a daily driver, in 1998 i bought my 1990 gmc sierra single cab/short bed for 5900. I lowered it, smoothie bumper, roll pan, fiberglass lid, chip/headers,shift kit, and air filter, it had a 350, also miss that one.

Sold that truck when i went into the Marine Corp in 2000, and at my first duty station i bought my 2001 sierra, 5.3 single cab/short bed. I had all bolt ons and tune. I added the Fabtech 7" 2wd lift, 16" mahave big bead lock wheels and billet grille/04 taillights and debaged it, awesome truck.


And finally my 05 silverado CC, started life as a 5.3/3.23 gear stocker. I added the usual bolt ons in 05 and 4.11s, with that set up i ran a best of 14.83 at 92mph full wieght with stock 17's, i didnt find that bad at all for now cam or stall. I then lifted it for awhile, went through a couple rearends, and ball joints, so took the lift off and started clean again. Truck now has 07 lq4, longtubes, vortech blower, 10lb pulley, overmaxed 44lb injectors, cam and mods in sig.
The day i bought it

on 22's, shackle drop

lifted up on 20's


Then dropped back down again


And now in its current state



And finally just recently purchased this 2000 sierra 4.3/5speed to v8 swap and start playing with
