'95 GMC Sierra

Here are a few pics of my truck.
Lots of custom work done to the hood, bumper and roll pan. The bumper started out as a smoothie unit and I added all of the lights and spoiler. the hood got molded in air extractors and the pan was modified for fit and I added the exhaust cutouts. Shaved the tail gate handle, 3rd brake lite and stake pocket holes. Smooth wiper cowl with shaved squirters and Astro van nozzles adapted to the truck wipers.
The lid and sides of the truck have, what I call, "stealth" flames sprayed on them. Just a pearl blue powder in a mid-coat clear carrier buried under the top coat. The sun has to be just right for them to show up...
Jet Hot coated headers, TBI spacer and a lot of paint and polish in the engine compartment.
Dropped 4 & 6 with all poly bushings, a Hellwig rear bar and 255/50's and 275/50's on 17 inch wheels.
Let me know what you think.
Mark

Congrats on the little girl! I didn't know you were pregnant!!! You have probably discovered how much time the little bundles require...
Things are good here. Luckily I took a new job outside GM before all of the layoffs in Jan. so, hopefully, I'll be safe for a while...
I haven't done anything to the truck in the last couple of years. I guess I am to a point where I like it and am happy leaving it as is.
The "Bad Ast Project" is my new focus, along with a major addition and makeover to the shop, which kept me real busy over the winter.
Carlisle isn't in the plans... The last couple of years the timing has clashed with a show at MIS. I would much rather do the show there then drive all the way to Carlisle. Plus, the lap time on the track is more then worth it. :smt023

Thank You! Very much appreciated! That was the goal for the build. Most people don't even realize all of the work that was put into it until they really start to look at it. I like it that way...
