'93 "Big Block Bowtie"

[ReduitRetro]

Hello again! This is yet another survivor build from nearly 30 years ago. GM back in the day would occasionally put out particular vehicles to showcase what their gear headed engineers could come up with, and the '93 Silverado 1500 SS-454 pickup was no exception. From a long line of factory "specialty" rides, such as the Buick Grand National and its more sinister version the GNX, the GMC Typhoon and Syclone, and the Chevy Impala SS, these vehicles carved out a special place in the hearts of automotive fans everywhere. Recently this kit has been reintroduced with a few improvements over the older version, but in my opinion totally unnecessary. Built completely box stock at the time, as I felt the kit was just about perfect as it came. Apparently many agreed with me indeed. PS, anyone interested in a closer look at Chevy's rival the Ford F-150 Lightning pictured with the featured truck, please refer to my "Forgettable Muscle" post for details. Thanks for looking.

Great looking Ford. Really well done.

Sharp looking Chevy. It complements the F-150 nicely.
