      Got 244 miles on the new motor as of yesterday. Has a new aluminum Radiator in it now from BeCool.com. Model 60069, for those with standard shift. The tanks on it are massive!

        My 89' F150 brick nose is considered a OBS by the Ford guys. I figure 87' back is OBS for Chevy.

              Dadgummit! I scanned (perhaps too fast) and didn’t see it. It was right there before my eyes! But, but, but…old body style? That makes no sense. All older trucks were old body style compared to today, and that will change regularly. I don’t like acronyms!

              I will definitely see you at Nanza, Mike.

                I'm back to driving my 98 almost daily again and looking for another project since I sold my last 2 Door Tahoe.

                Anybody have a running/driving 2 Door Tahoe or Reg Cab Truck they want to part with? Looking for another project with my kids. No rust buckets, 4x4 is a must. Prefer driveable. Other than that whatcha got?


                Only picture I have of my 1998 handy. Needs paint but interior is 9/10 and run like a top. And would love to see pictures of other peoples as well.

                I have a 1998 GMC extended cab Z71 I will sell. PM Me

                          Who in the world thinks a 88-98 truck is an OBS?

                            The folks that declared the 1999 and up "The New Body Style".


                            The '87 and down lost the title of OBS and became the "square bodies" when the 1999 models came out. And the '88-98 became the new "OBS". Happens ever time a new style comes out, regardless of mfgs. We will lose the title of OBS one day. Just don't know what the public will call us yet. Maybe the "Old OBS"? But I would guess that's the title of the current Square bodies right now.
