My '95

[Cam06]

Here is my 1995 K2500 Silverado. Right now she has about 159k miles on her and is all what I had expected when I bought it. I bought it this past January and it pretty much came the way you see her. I'll probably put 35" tires on her before to long.

Bought new tires since my RF tire blew off part of the tread after picking up a buddy from Indiana...

Dude this truck looks great! For some reason I really like the Green and Brown two tone!! The Hood, Rear Bumper and windshield visor look great, I plan on getting the visor, hood and do you know where I could find a bumper like that?? Also what size lift is that ??

The insurance company totalled it out but I bought it back and plan of fixing the rear end this week/weekend and then doing all the body work later on. Just need to make it road legal right now so I have something reliable to drive.

What happened was a little 88 Honda PreLude hit me spun me around into an "almost" 360 (I would have probably done a 360 if I didn't hit the brakes). When I stopped my tire was 10 to 15 feet away from where I landed and I was pretty much balancing all the weight of the truck on the front end.

It bent the frame a little bit, killed the bed, the bed hit the back of the cab on RS, axle split, axle housing cracked, leafs off, and a few other things like the filler neck for fuel tank and such...

Where are the pics from that damned japanese BS on wheels ? Should have much more damage than yours ?

Sorry, for your truck. Look(ed) really nice ! If it were mine,it have "killed" the Honda driver ! :mad:

Cu,

I do not have any pics of the POS that hit me... But the whole front end was totalled. All you could really see from the front was the engine basically. most of the pieces were on the ground...

I am having a body shop (other then the dealer that has it now) do some estimates for me. Since the insurance totalled it I have a few $$ to spend. Hopefully it won't be to much to get everything done.

When I get the body work done I am thinking of getting a different color to paint the truck. I was thinking of hugger orange since I have always loved orange and that orange really attracked me on those ol' Camaros. Any suggestions for a new color?

In the next few weeks im painting my truck a Metallic Burgundy looks awesome! Almost looks black at night but when the sun is on it its gorgeous

[Craig]

Red with silver graphics. Looks hot and Red will allways be a cool color (timeless)

[ercaduceus]

I want to paint mine Flat Black.

[Shlep]

Sorry to see that much damage to your truck, unfortunately some people are clueless and don't belong behind the wheel :mad:

The sad thing is that trying to replace that beauty might be difficult. If there's an insurance company involved they don't want to give a settlement that's comenserate with the value of the truck . Good luck and good hunting for a new truck.

[Cam06]

My truck is actually getting repaired atm. Insurance company gave me $7,400 once truck and deductable was subtracted. Getting it repaired for about $5,000 - It would be less but I do not have the time, tools, or space to work on it right now...

Are those Yokohama MTs they look it. Yokohamas are the best and BFGs just sell because of their name and that they might have once been good tires i know from experiance working at Cooper tire BFGs are junk from the day they are built till they blow out. They dont balance good and repairing them sucks cause they are so thin we sold mostly Daytons and Firestones or Michelins as the more expensive tires but i would still rather have Yokohamas. I would take cheap Daytons over BFGs anyday. I just had to say something because i like Yokohamas more than i like myself. End Rant.

A guy at work has a hugger orange Bronco on 35s. We all call it the "Orange S#!tsicle."

[Cam06]

I've decided to repaint it the same color. I have had plenty of comments on the truck before i wrecked it so I'll just keep it the color it is.
