96 GMC 4x4 Z71 - MysteryDent
Hi guys, I'm new here. This is my first full size OBS truck and I love it.. so much so that I've had it for almost a year! That's a long time for me..
Here's how it looks now... tell me what you think. You won't hurt my feelings... I know it's not the coolest looking just yet, but I'm working on it.
PS, my old man gave me the camper.. I sort of like it. It's nice for hauling.
Well let me know what I should do to this thing (besides buff that scratch out).. It needs some help.

Oh ya that will easily buff right out.......
Anywho... Welcome to FSC and my personal opinion clean it up and call it good or customize it to your liking. I would think a lift and some oversize tires would look good

I think its a pretty good start. I had a topper on my old Sierra as well. I left it on during the winter and replaced it with a tonneau cover in the summer. My only suggestions would be to fix that huge ass dent and clean it up a bit. Then remove the nerf bars and look into a more aggressive tire. Other than that, it looks good.

Can't go much bigger on the tires... those are 305/70-16... and I don't want to go to a 35" tire... so I'm going to lift it with a Rough Country 2-3" suspension lift and go with some 16x10 wheels.... what do you all think of that?

I like it, you took a few steps that i still need to do with my truck (black wheels and tint)
the camper does look good, but i could totally see a black tool box in the bed to :P

I want it to look like this somehow lol
Then you're gonna need to demold it and do something about those fender flares. Gonna take care of that dent?

The dent would have been the first thing I'd have taken care of before shelling out money for a BL and cowl hood. It takes away from the look of the truck bad.

Yeah... costs to fix that dent are crazy expensive..
I plan on demolding, smooth bumper etc as time and money allow.
im new here too and building something that looks similar, it looks clean the way it is i think that keys and blocks would look awesome on there. whats the interior like?
inside is really clean.... with rubber grip tape and all
Looks great! some smoked taillights and headlights would look awesome with those black wheels and flares

Orcleans.... farm store
Scored a tailgate spoiler off of an 04 for only $30!!! I think it looks badass... goes with the utility theme I'm going for
Looking good, it all works for me.
