Pops NBS Chevy

[OldSchoolBoats]

He has been building this for awhile. Turned out super clean.

Removed the leaf springs in back, did some killer suspension, new interior and brakes. Bad ass truck and ready for some new power.

Nice looking NBS. Any info on the suspension? Interesting setup

 

[Desert Whaler]

That thing's killer !
My Pops has the exact same truck (stock) same color, factory posi in the rear end, same tonneau too!
I think it's a 2003 and just turned 100K miles.
He's gonna trip when I show him this ! Those wheels look perfect for it too !

 

[Backlash]

Truck looks GREAT!! Its obvious he enjoys it! Nicely done Sir!

 

[RitcheyRch]

Very nice looking truck.

Makes me miss my single cab 2000 GMC. Even with stock suspension, it was like driving a vette. Fuckin truck got me into all sorts of trouble.

 

[BUDMAN]

Your killing me Joe! Every time I see this truck it makes me want another one.

I love that. I want a 90s one Chevy with a 454 bad. White 4 door short bed. A buddy of mine had a white dually slammed with big rig rims and it had a 454 stick shift. Was all tricked out so clean and he let it go for 7k back in 2017. Would probably get top dollar for it now.

And you don’t even have to LS swap it

Nice looking truck, I prefer that 1st Gen front end NBS over the cat eye when it comes to single cabs. One day I would love to have one with a turbo on it.

 

[Backlash]

Not mine, but this is a beautiful truck!!

 

[HNL2LHC]

Found this last night and offered it to Budman but he didn’t reply. I can’t find the funds at this time so maybe a RDP member can snatch it up. Then maybe in the next year I can come up with the $40k that it will be worth at that time and buy it from said member for myself. :rocking:

4.8 or 5.3?

What's NBS and OBS?

 

[Wedgy]

New Body Style, Old Body Style /. It's an after SquareBody Style Chevy thing? LOL

 

[ArizonaKevin]

Stands for "Old Body Style" and "New Body Style"

The GM truck community was very creative with that, and didn't think much about long term consistency.

Don’t forget NNBS...

 

[ArizonaKevin]

Don’t forget NNBS...

I got out of the GM truck world in the middle of NNBS, have they continued it on to NNNBS and now NNNNBS? or maybe RNBS (really new body style)

 

[OldSchoolBoats]

4.8 or 5.3?

This truck currently has a 4.3L V6, but the transmission was recently done as he is getting ready to do a swap to a V8.

The 4.3 trans may need to either use a torque converter spacer or have the bellhousing swapped to get the crankshaft spacing correct, as the 4.3 uses the old SBC / BBC crank flange spacing, whereas the 4.8 / 5.3 / 6.0 motors have a shallower crank measurement. If he needs any help sourcing parts, swap harness, ecm etc give me a call. Done a bunch of these in the past.

No, most go by the model platform designation for the newer trucks.

OBS/GMT400 1988-1999
NBS/GMT800 1999-2006
NNBS/GMT900 2007-2013
GMT K2XX 2014-2019
GMT T1XX 2020-2021

Just a little bump for this thread. Pops has been busy with his NBS Chevy. The stock V6 with 171k miles has been swapped out for this. Also added full air suspension. Was his 70th B day present to himself.

looks like the Ridetech coil over kit. They ride and handle pretty good. I got my buddy one for his 92 short bed.

It is the RideTech kit. All air now.

Will ask him what he's doing with the parts.

That’s Bad Ass!
How does he like the new motor compared to the old V6?

It's still being worked on so doesn't have it back yet but I would say that it should be quite the difference!!

 

[OldSchoolBoats]

Now we both have to take a ride out to Havasu to register it in AZ.

 

[BUDMAN]

That’s quite the upgrade.
