2013 Silverado 1500 LTZ
It arrived on a trailer. It's been a daily driver ever since.
What it was
A crew cab LTZ with good running gear and cosmetic damage an insurer decided wasn't worth paying to fix. That decision is made on retail parts and shop labour rates — which is exactly why the numbers work when you do it yourself.
During — the part nobody films
LTZ interior — untouched by the damage

Where it is now
Still on the road. Which is the actual test — not how it photographs the week it's finished, but whether it's still working two years later.
