Well there's a long story of how I ended up with this truck and what I've had before this. Ill make it really simple and quick. I bought the truck on top when I was 13, and over the course of three years built the truck on the bottom. LS swap, lots of handling goodies, tons of sheet metal/bodywork, yada yada yada.
Well in a freak accident, I ended up totaling it 6 months after finishing it. It placed at every show it entered, I had so much more than money and time in it. I built it alongside my father and learned so much from it.
Well, I'm lucky to still be here. I blessed to have my parents literally give me this truck. Call me spoiled or whatever because I know I don't deserve it. It's an 06 LBZ CCSB 4wd with 240k on the clock, charcoal grey clothe with the center console, Bose audio, NNBS shifter, and push button transfer case shifter. Don't have many pictures but will get some more soon.
Plan is, on my minimum wage 16 year old's budget, and skillful and sometimes immoral "bartering" of parts I've accumulated(LOL) is to make this truck comfortable, reliable, usable, and most of all CLEAN truck.
Doing all of the free things I can a the moment to make this truck look better. Deleted the antenna, clearing the lights right now, demolding, fixing bumper sag, buffing/polishing it, etc. Ordered tint in 15% front roll ups, 10% rear roll ups, and 5% rear glass. Will be here tomorrow. Got a set of 1500 keys to level it. Want to do a set of LML 20s with adapters eventually because I can't be seen on hubcaps right? Eventually I will smooth and paint all the plastics. Spray in a bedliner, probably raptor liner I like it a lot. Need bed rail caps as they are beat to shit. I wanna try cleaning the frame as much as I can, and paint as much of it as I can with some POR-15.
Probably a second hand cheap supershits programmer mostly for the economy tune. No big plans for go fast parts as I don't and won't have the cash to build another transmission.
For audio ill probably be running a second hand RE sxx 10 v1 in a ported box ill make, whether it'll be under the seat, in the floor, or in the seat I'm undecided on. I have a set of alpine type s coaxial door speaker I might put in, but the stock Bose ones sound pretty clean and clear.
What can go wrong, right?
