1997 GMC Sierra review from North America
"The car is beautiful"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced idle arm pittman arm, belt tensioner, water pump, the antifreeze leak at 330000 miles.
Other than that, it's running like a champion.
I am dropping a 454 engine in it soon, and replacing the tranny and mostly everything under the hood for better performance.
General comments?
I just got done customizing the interior with leather bucket seats, black carpet and dash with a suede roof liner.
