dude, that's a sick build. and don't worry about this place... you've got an LS in it, so there's plenty of applicability around here.

that's a pretty cool setup.

Nice truck! I've seen similar tubing on aviation applications and a buddy uses it in a turbo application. Good stuff and easy to work with!

Quick trip up to Big Sur, CA. Went around 0900 so it was still pretty cloudy. Sun came out after 1100 in time for lunch at Pfeiffer Beach.

Me? Everything I own is for sale for the right price. It's not as perfect as it looks in the pics though. Make an offer.

yeah, I miss my Sierra.



I don't like making offers or negotiating without having looked at it... I guess it comes from having so many people low ball me on my stuff without looking at it.

I'm running AutoX this weekend in Bowling Green, & the road course the following weekend. I'll take a ride up that way one day when things slow down a bit.

I live right outside of Hopkinsville. We were thinking about heading to the dragstrip at Beech Bend tonight but decided against it with the weather.

The truck needs a few hundred bucks worth of paintless dent repair, no major dents, just a few small ones. Drivers door panel has a bad spot from the previous owner's dog.

173k miles and not a single speck of rust anywhere except a couple of surface spots on the roll pan where paint chipped off.

Here's the specs I got from the previous owner.



I have put about 10k miles on it since I've owned it. Rear has a bolt in notch but it will bottom out on a really hard bump. I've got a bigger, weld-in under bed notch for it, just haven't had the time to install it.
