Before talking about the Sierra, I did sell the 03 Silverado 2 months ago. After 7 years of ownership, rust taking over, plus having an offer I couldn't turn down, it was time to sell.

And....

A week or so later I found this one on craigslist. Went and looked at it, turned out to be everything I was looking for except the price. Tried negotiating but walked away that day leaving my offer with him; and long story short we ended up making a deal 2 months later.

About the Sierra; 2007 classic SLT LBZ Graystone Metallic, 70k miles, two previous owners making me the third. Comes with 2 way remote starter, Leer topper, Bedrug, and other grandpa accessories.

Plans:

Convert DRL’s to signals
HID’s Done
Switchbacks
Clear headlights
Clear bumper lamps
Raise bumper
Tow mirrors (color matched)
GMC grille emblem (color matched)
Remove bug shield Done
Remove step bars Done
Remove topper
Remove yellow off tailights
Swap BEDRUG left from the 03 to this truck
Escalade door handles
Color match tow mirrors
22x12’s and 33’s ?
4-6 Cognito ?
Debadge demold
Color match rear bumper plastics
Center dump exhaust
Clean/paint frame
Clean behind flares
Tint, 5% back three & sunroof, 50% fronts and windshield
HD hood
All interior LED's Done

Damn dude, nice score! Didn't think we'd see the day that you sold the silvy though, but it was for the best.

Can't wait to see how this one turns out. Congrats Kyle.

Truck has had this BEDRUG and topper since new, there is not one scratch in the bed and literally looks like the day it was painted.

What did you end up getting for the silveraydo if you don't mind me asking and what was the mileage at time of sale?
I'm meeting with a buyer for mine today.

Thanks Chris! BTW these pics are with the new camera lol. Still need some different lenses.

No problem, It had 109k miles on it, sold it stripped down and stock looking for $11,000. Then I got $2000 for the preds and nittos from another guy. In the end $13,000 total.

Nice! I have mine listed at 17, and won't take a dime less. 68k miles.
That's exactly the info and reassurance I needed!

Thats some low miles, plus yours has more done to it than mine did, and probably doesn't have rust holes in the rockers. lol

awesome truck. in for progres. how u like the diesel compared to gas truck?

I'm loving it so far, I just want to keep driving it :crazy: My first diesel, and first crew cab. Been only wanting one for 5+ years!

Once you go diesel you'll never want to go back to gas.
That's been my struggle for the past 2.5-3yrs with my 1500.

Best way I can describe it, is its like putting a condom back on after not using one for a year lol

Sad to see the 03 go but this looks like a clean truck and I know you'll build something sweet! 22x12s on 35s would be killer though IMO. :happeh:

I would keep the camper around, because at least it's the nice looking one with solid glass down the sides, blends in nicely with the truck.

Plans listed sound great but do you plan on getting into the motor or tuning any? I'm sure Matt could help you out with that lol
