Hey, as long as it makes you happy, that's all that matters.

If he hasn't sold it already. I'd love to see his truck too. The last time I saw it was right after the had the LS1 originally swapped in and it just had a 4/6 and 20s.

Re: The History of 1badgmc
Very nice. I always thought your truck was an extreme static drop or somethin. Looks great. Most dont realize what a hassle Texas State Troopers are about lowered trucks. Front lic.plate & tint are top on their list of citations. They used to roll that pipe under the truck to see if it cleared...I think they quit doin that?

I can't count how many tint tickets I've had with this truck. Lots of money invested there.  I used to have my front plate behind the billet in the front bumper. Cops didn't appreciate that one too much.

Never heard of that one.  They have 3 possibilities they could try to get you for on being too low (or too high for that matter). Headlight height, taillight height and scrub line. As long as your lights are in the height ranges and no part of the vehicle is lower than the lowest point of your wheels, they can't say a damn thing. If you're running 30-35 series tires like I am, you can ride pretty damn low and still be perfectly legal.

Couldn't agree more, I've loved this truck since the first time I saw it when I joined the site...just wish I made it to Slamboree in years pst to be able to see it up close in person.

I should have just hit the old bastard instead of taking out an innocent party.

Re: The History of 1badgmc
I read like 9 replies on the first page, and I was like oh eff it didnt even see page 2
but it's nice you put this out, forever it was like the truck with no history to see (unless you're in the 94 build thread)

We say colour the same way you say color, we just spell it differently 
I don't get it either, so I always spell it "color", just one less letter to write/type imo

Re: The History of 1badgmc
thought i posted in here before, but apparently not
i'm just hopping on the wagon of "definately one of the coolest trucks on here" wagon. simple & clean, nothing overly done or exaggerated. i remember when i first joined & would see it in your sig & was always curious of the progress/various stages of it's life. of course the professional photography always added to how great it looked whenever i caught a glimpse of it 
it's funny how a project is never officially "done", but not having changed anything drastic on it for so long, it's still exceeding current trends & setting the bar...very high.

Damn Jason...thanks for making me feel old. I remember seeing most of those pictures when they happened. It's still one of my favorite trucks. Nice job.

Re: The History of 1badgmc
Yours is definitely one of my favorite trucks, as you might be able to tell with what I've done to mine.
