  • Ran across this truck last week, decided my old red truck was pretty shot, so I will sell it for a few hundred, fix this one up. It's an 86 GMC, with a big block 454. Not wild about that much motor, but it can't be much worse on gas than the other one, and sure has a lot of power. Will put my new tires off the red truck on it, eventually paint it, repair the rust. It will have to wait a while, several other projects that need finished first....

    front seat needs reupholstered, but otherwise the interior is pretty decent. It was the fancy cab with power windows and locks and all. Gauges under the dash work, as does the tach. Radio works but isn't much, needs new speakers in the doors, etc. That stuff can come later....

    had a plastic dash cap installed over the dash, not sure I like it, I may yank it out and put on a woven one, like I had in the red truck....
