The $2800 Chevy Silverado!

I just got a 2005 Silverado 1500 (floor shift) 4x4, 2 door long bed, with 157k on it and it’s a work truck model as well. Had to replace the back 2 frame cross members and weld in new ones (got from eBay), and primed & painted the back half of the frame, and just put in Bose door speakers from a Suburban from the junkyard. By far, one of the best daily/work trucks I’ve ever had!! The best part, only paid $2000 for it 6 months ago. Plus, I have a 2005 LLY Duramax that I have as well that sits at home to tow our camper on the weekends or for long, far away camping trips.

Looks real nice, and dang what a price. 👊

Nice truck I always liked the cat eye trucks

Beautiful truck man

Just paid 13 OTD at a small dealer here in Cali. It’s a 4 door 4.8 with 130 miles. It was on par for what’s on market place. You got a steal for 2800 bucks

Great truck !

I feel your going far ima follow and see

Good purchase, damage on a truck is ok, just gonna get used anyway, this way you dont have to worry about messing it up.

Great Video, I would like to see how you going to repair the rear damage

Overload shocks aren’t the best idea . The shock mounts aren’t designed to carry weight. I would go air bags or like you said add a leaf or all new spring pack. Just my thoughts but otherwise nice work truck. 👍🏻

I've got an '06 Chevy, Z71, 4x4, extended cab, 280,000 + miles. Rough shape but it did drive good until the fuel tank almost fell out & the frame cracked. Repairing it I found the frame pinholed. As of now it's sitting & I'm thinking on how much I could spend on it. We're talking a used frame, used rear axle & some body work. I loved this truck before this happened & really hate letting go but think of how much all of that could cost?

Good on you. Frame OK underneath?

Keep an an eye on your reared mine went bad after I was hit in my Silverado and it started to make a noise

Back of the cab has damage due to the bed smashing into it when it was hit.

Hey man I have one of those trucks and I have a mint condition folding center console. I had just replaced the lid on it but I found a steal on a full center console. I can give it to you super cheap if it would help you out. It’ll just sit in a corner otherwise.

How is that totaled? It just needs a bedside and a rear bumper, and possibly a new receiver hitch if it's even bent at all. I just backed into a dang telephone pole with my truck this past summer and had worse damage than that, and my insurance company did not total the truck, but it was about 5k to repair it.

I just paid 6 for an 04 2500 hd 6.0 with 185k on it,I’d say you got a pretty good deal.

Do yourself a favor and change all the fluids I have an 03 11600 miles

after seeing this video and another guy in the comments saying he had one for only 2k i feel like i got ripped off for buying a 07 colorado (not silverado) for 2.5k it seemed like a decent deal with everything working and it had 108k miles but idk now 😅
