Known about Oznium for quite awhile but today I figured Id register here on the forum.
'Lil about me...Im 19, live in Louisiana, and my hobbies heavily revolve around things automotive. I work at Ferrara Fire Apparatus on the 12V electrical crew. My ride:
Whoops, that pesky V6 is missing.
Thats ok. I have something to fix that! Until then though, Ive been keeping myself occupied with lighting projects, the most current of which is underhood lighting and something I talked about with a coworker. Hooking up some lights under my doors that come on when you open them/turn off when you close. All that is left is to choose which light I like the most! Cyall around. |

Going in will be a (basically) brand new Vortec 355 w/ Holley carb, head work, cam, exhaust. Kornholio: I like bagged trucks, not for me though. |

Nah, the lights will be on the hood and core support on either side of the electric fans. Some sort of white lights that will be useful for servicing, etc. |

Its a 1993. I put a 94-98 grille on it, the diesel truck bumper, billet, etc.
This particular truck was factory with a 4.3L V6 and TH400 transmission.
Like the torque, not the price Thanks guys. I found these today. They will be perfect lil door switches for my project.

Thanks man. Admittedly, the truck isnt as nice as the photos let on. The roof is faded pretty good, I have several small chips in the paint, there is a large scratch in that front fender in the pic, as well as one on the other side, etc. I have a little fiberglass damage on the opposite fender by the back bumper. Not very noticeable but it is there. According to CarFax the truck was actually wrote off in 1994, only a year old. It sports a reconstructed title now. Its no show truck, but I get alot of good words on it since I take care of it the best I can. |
