This is a pic of my old 88 that I had. I know it is white, but you get the idea of color matching the grill. Would look even better with a black truck.

not to thread hijack, but reminds my of my '88 I had when I was 16. I sure miss that truck!

Nice work on that truck!

I'm in Lisle now right at 355 and maple, but I have a feeling I'll see it.

yea im always floating around wheaton and carol stream, sometimes naperville and warrenville to. i normally dont wonder to far from home.

Lookin good, I didn't realize they used a different core support. Either way, a nicely restored old truck is better than a new truck (IMO- hence what I'm doing with my 99)

figured i would do alitte update sence i did a few things to the truck sence the last photos. first i got a couple snow porn pictures, wish i got more but the season sucked so i got these.

next i got a new grill the other one was all busted up and i didnt like the chrome. i scored a really nice and clean one that was crack free and panted it black. I also got rid of the dmi, just didnt have a use for the solid of a bumper, painted that black to. yesterday i was searching craigslist and came across a black set of hd hoss rims with 285 tires that were 60% for 400 bucks and couldn't pass them up so i bought them and bolted them up to.

Sweet looking truck!!!

[the new boss 92]

last but not least i installed duel 800 cca batterys, and upgraded the charging system a bit. the evap canister i ended up just mounting to the side of the battery tray and using the original hardwear and mouting location to hold the battery tray bracket(i built) in place. i aslo got bored one day and painted the air cleaner cause it was ugly

[the new boss 92]

next on my list of things to do will be a 2in cowl hood, i have to respray the truck because it got keyed in a parking lot real bad, and the clear coat split on the cab. i wanna also get the amber led strip that go under the driver and passenger doors to. thats it for now but im sure ill get another bug up my azz to do more stuff later.

[mossman381]

The new wheels look good.

[the new boss 92]

Thanks, for 400 with decent tires on them I couldn't pass them up. And they were only **** 15 minuets from me.

[mercer_me]

The truck and plow look great. How do you like it. I loved my 1989 Chevy 2500.

Truck looks real good! Im in the middle of a possible deal on a 95 silverado. As my truck is starting to have transmission problems and frame rot issues. Sucks...

Yeah its awful. My truck is pass the point of no return. I rebuilt the engine about 3 years ago, so the truck im interested in has a cracked block. So the plan is to swap the engine and upgraded parts to the possible aquisition'ed 95.
