Weekend Warrior

THIS ’07 SILVERADO CLASSIC LT HAS BEEN DUANE TIDWELL’S BABY SINCE IT HAD JUST 7 MILES ON IT, RIGHT OFF THE LOT. Years later, the Chevy has 76,000 miles on it, but it’s still Duane’s baby. A weekend rider, this Silverado obviously holds a piece of Duane’s heart, something we love to see in a build.

The ’07 still features the 5.3L V-8 stock engine, which runs great and sounds especially healthy through the Flowmaster dual exhaust Duane has outfitted. Rear shackles lower the back 2 inches, while Gunner-6 rims by MB Wheels keep this Silverado sitting pretty. On the exterior, a Trifecta tonneau cover lends a high-end appearance and low side profile while keeping the bed secure. The cab has been personalized with a wood-grain dash kit.

Duane has said that keeping it clean and detailed for weekend chores is his main hobby, and we can’t blame him. This Silverado is something Duane should be proud to have his name on.
