Jimmydean771 Posted July 12, 2017 Report Share Posted July 12, 2017 Talked with the girlfriend and decided I needed to ditch my single cab and get an extended cab so I don't have to buy a new truck whenever that time comes. Ran across an 05 SSS in South Carolina, had some family check it out, bought it, and am flying into NC to pick it up from my father's house. Completely stoked to be apart of an awesome community, and to own what I think to be a piece of history from an era of muscle trucks that simply doesn't exist anymore!

Jimmydean771 Posted July 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2017 Thanks guys. Definitely in love with the black, and it's going to look great towing my black racecar. I'll post up some pictures as soon as I get back across the country and get it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmydean771 Posted July 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2017 Photos from the East Coast to hold me over until my plane ride! I love how simple it is. Not going to do much to it honestly for a little while. 2/2 drop to tuck the wheels, swap out programmers, maybe a new Kenwood head unit, swap the hood, and some nice WeatherTech floor mats. And no, it's not an Intimidator. I think the previous owner slapped that sticker on. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matslp488 Posted July 16, 2017 Report Share Posted July 16, 2017 Congrats! Seems to be in very good condition Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmydean771 Posted July 17, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2017 The hood is rusted out on the bottom, but it's obviously an aftermarket. The rest of the truck is rust-free, and is really straight. Only 60,000-ish miles on the clock. Plan on either finding an HD hood or going with another cowl hood. Guess it all depends on what's available! Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davischevy Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 Congratulations on the truck. Did you pick it up yet? I bought mine in Albemarle NC 11 years ago, and took a few days to drive home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rays B4U Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 Welcome! I drove mine off the Showroom Floor 4/23/2003 and still get a grin on my face every time I drive it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
