Well, downpayment is down, Money order for the remaining has been fedexed. Looks like I will finally be rejoining the FSC family, with exactly what i want. (just about).

2000 Silverado
Extended Cab, 4 door (not crew)
4.8L v8 (305cc)
5 SPEED MANUAL
2 wheels drive

LS, fairly well loaded.

Pewtar certainly isnt my first choice, but its a southern truck, with zero rust. Decent miles, etc. I couldnt be happier.

Im in ontario, and will be flying down to the dealership on the 24th, and driving home. Should be about an 18hr drive. Watch for a 'on going project' thread in the nearish future.
Plans include: 4-6 Drop, flush toneau, bedrug, rollpan, shaved tailgat, caddy handles, clear corners, KN FIPK, exhaust system, goodmark cowl hood, 20's, and either colour matched front bumper or SS style cover. Oh, and full *full* stereo system

welcome aboard...but, the 4.8 isn't a 305. the 5.0 is/was the 305. the 4.8 is a 293 cu. in. its not a bad motor, especially once you have it custom-tuned so you can really wring some power out of it. it will feel kinda sluggish thanks to that drive-by-wire mess...
