The order sheet form that the original owner showed he ordered a Sierra Grande and the delivery sheet also has Sierra Grand on it too. You think it only a Sierra? -In sheep’s clothing!??
I wonder if this is due to early delivery of this truck, since you mentioned that they only started offering it in ’71. The truck was ordered September 1970, and delivered February 2, 1971.
What are you thoughts?
