Bagged 94 silverado Build Log (delilah)


Recommended Posts

Posted

I haven't posted on here in awhile but I've started a new project, I will start a new build for the audio. Now I've always wanted to have a project truck that wasn't a daily driver so if I mess something up it's no big deal if it sits. I was looking for a obs chevy or gmc, after about 2 months of not finding what I was looking for then one day I was driving home and found exactly what I was looking for about 15 minutes from my house. I pulled over got the phone number went back an hour later after a little bit of negotiations I left with a black 94 Silverado ext 2wd pickup. I immediately started ordering parts and spending countless hours working on the truck. I've owned it for about 90 days now and progress will become slower from here on out because I don't have a garage and Indiana winters are cold. Anyways here is somewhat of a picture timeline, also keep in mind this is my first time ever welding and doing body work on a vehicle.

Day I brought it home

Well I lowered the back 4inches... My uncle owns a garage and was nice enough to let me use the lift and his torch, cut off tools, press, and air chisel.

Begining

We ran into all sorts of issues, first we broke one of the u-bolts on the rear end right off the back. We had several obstacles, but six hours later we finished.
