Talking 1993 GMC 1 Ton Turbo Diesel Daily Driver, Tow Truck, Farm Truck Project

1993 GMC Sierra 3500 1 Ton 6.5L Turbo Diesel

I bought her yesterday from my local dealership, truck is a super clean one owner that has been taken very good care of. Only 145,000 miles in 17 years will all maintenance records, etc.

No idea what she will become, will all the tears shed by the previous owner I may force myself to refrain from changing her up to much for a while...at least a week or two.

More than likely she will become some kind of Black & Chrome combo like my 2010 CCSB.

Windows getting tinted and bolting on a 4" Magnaflow Tip today.

List of things that need to go:

1) Body kit (steps and ****)
2) Bug visor
3) Grille Guard
4) Window Visors (unless you like em)
5) Badges

Things that need to be done:
1) headlights seem dull.
2) Smooth front bumper
3) Exhaust
4) Tint

And jesus it has stick on chrome rocker panels lol. We have our work cut out for us Kevin.

Agreed and then some, probably going to go with some dark tinted window visors instead of the clears. I see a lot of cold beers and bullshitting in this build....and a **** load of elbow grease also, lol.

She is pretty new for a truck bought in 1992 Bo, I was surprised.
Got to get her all stripped down to see how much TLC she will need.
Going to have her painted Black and leave some Chrome on her.
