Thanks. The pictures make it look a little better than it really is...

but... it needs a tailgate, brakes, fix exhaust leak, new steps, striaghten up front bumper, passenger mirror is loose, needs a bed liner, the windsheild has a minor leak, passenger side door lock doesnt always work. etc...

Lots of little things... The body is overall straight. I do have antoher set of bullet hole wheels to put on it, but they are pretty beat up, so i'll proably have them powder coated black.

I need a cd player too. driving around without my tunes is getting old already.

and yes it is a 460. With the C6

Thanks for all the compliments! makes me feel a little better about the buying it. Paid $4000 and got a second set of mickey thompson wheels with almost new 38's swampers with it.

Thats a pretty good deal considering! How many miles are on that beast? Sounds like a weekend or two of work and she'll be ready to go!

As much as I would like to, my boss would kill me, that's his 03 SS. I'm lucky to still have a job after backing that thing into an RV at the Canadian border.

OK back to reality... Here's what 75% of the old trucks out there look like... LOL!!! I have the 351w getting a rebuild... Hooker headers, flat pistons, comp cam, comp cam timing chain, meling oil pump, and screen, chrome moly rings 0.030 over, stock E7 heads (for now), probably a MAF conversion in the near future, also a rebuilt stock C6 and BW 1345. I have 3.55 gears but maybe going to 4.10's soon also... My old lady is in school and I'm bored (can't tell can you...? LOL). Hopefully get to the 300 HP I want after some more mods... Also have grey captains seats from a 94, and going to tear out inside and re-sound proof it to make it nice for long trips. I figure over the course of the next few years it will end up looking like a brand new truck (maybe like the paint scheme in the link on the bottom) Any way the white bed is an Arkansas rust free that will be going on, with rhino or linex spray on bed liner. The topper was free (lol... using for storage) right now. Planning on a front to back rebuild of the mechanics and then work on body when it's up and running how i want it... SO F3fifty... You are miles ahead of me so far!

I live in Lakeland... But I just bought it up in Mayo, which is south of Live Oak about 20 miles. So you may have seen it before...
