Hey what's up guys and gals I just picked up a 04 silverado roller for 500 bucks with a clean title!well I got it cheap because it's got some fire damage.Somebody was working on the spider injectors and they burned it up from what I heard from the guy I got it from.Anywho I'm gonna rebuild the truck tonight I just picked it up and tore off the fenders hood and what was left of the core support.I'll just update as I go and see how much it cost me to get it back cost me to get it back up and running.I'll post some pics as I go

Gt4 = 3.73. I think starting in '04 rear disk brakes were an option.

After tearing this burned up dash apart it didn't seem too hard to just replace the dash and wiring harness.I might just do that I found a whole truck all the parts I need for 200 so might do that it's a 2500 tho and mines a half I hope it's the same
