Blueka's "Pickle" Registry....

[blueka]

Well, I got an email today... young guy with a 2000 Limited. Rolled it over last week, waiting to see what his insurance wants to buy it back. 240k kms on it. Green with grey leather.

Hopefully it won't be much and he's gonna send me pictures as soon as he gets them.

Fingers crossed....

Let me know if you can salvage the heated mirrors from the limited. I'll send mine your way for a good price if needed.

 

[blueka]

I don't even know if I'm getting it, but I'll let you know.. .are yours heated WITH puddle lights?

Yes, they are from a limited.

 

[blueka]

cool... well, pm me what you're asking etc... and we'll go from there!!

Thanks dude!


Si

 

[blueka]

well, the limited turned out to be a V6, rolled into water... so it's a no go... Still waiting on a V8..
Was thinking about getting the V6 one though and taking the dash wiring and center console wiring out and installing it all in Pickle while I wait for a V8 to come along.. The V6 is currently on bid for $350.. not sure if it even runs...


Si

 

[blueka]

so.... I ended up getting that V6 limited. I got it home last night and will start removing parts from it today. It's in a lot better condition than I thought, so, I've decided to change Pickle's interior colour from tan to grey.

Pictures to come later today.

I've decided to change the colour of the interior from tan to grey and put some of the stuff from this truck into Pickle

These bits

I'm also going to transfer the reverse parking sensors and all the gizmos and sensors from under the hood (low washer/oil/etc)

Watch this space, still on the lookout for a V8 though!

[sean99]

Seems like most 99-01 came with tan. The grey interior is my favorite, good call

 

[cybergasm]

wonder if the snow transfers over too ?

 

[jad2411]

Now you need to find matching leather, door and rear panels :

 

[blueka]

Dave, when I got Pickle she was full of snow, I'm not going through all that again!!
I might have a lead on replacement interior trim panels in the grey too!!

That's quite an under taking. I can't wait to see what the final product turns out to be.

And I thought it took a good bit of work to get my '03 back on the road!
