I really wasn't planning on any go fast mods for this truck at all. But if i bought my own paint gun and shit, i could do my own colormatching and practice with the plastics under the hood. I guess some headers and a cam would be nice.....hmmmmmm
I've already got all of your money spent. Grab a custom spec'd cam from Pat G like Dan did. $400. Get a Circle D 3000 stall $375. and Pick up the same OBX headers off of Ebay that dan did. $375ish. BAM! That thing would scoot really good. :thumbs:

:werd:

IMO, the appearance is perfect. I've always liked the clean look of your truck. Sometimes less is more.

Kyle, I wouldn't touch the exterior except for fixing the spots you mentioned. I've always thought your truck looked amazing and is by far my favorite GMT-800 (nice color too :D).

PTM some interior parts (like you did on the '96) and start on some performance stuff. I'd de-crank the front a little just to get it leveled (might help on tire wear too). Whatever is left over, put it towards paying it off.

Are your tires already worn down?

I mean....how much do you actually owe? If it's 1500 or less I'd say pay it off. If not, move inside or underhood IMO

There's really nothing to do inside other than PTM-ing. The interior on it is SPOTLESS and very nice. I think he's got the Bose sound system in it from the factory too.

That's what I meant....I'm not much on blowing money on sound
