Re: How about some pics of 73-87 Long Beds?

Thanks guys, the ol' girl wasn't too happy with me that day, but I really didn't want to make a 4th trip so I loaded her to the top.

Very Nice Pictures Remon. My 73 never came with the Trim. But then again the bed isn't the original ether.

Re: How about some pics of 73-87 Long Beds?

Might as well throw mine into the mix. It a 74' C20 camper special. Needs some body and wheel care but it runs great. Has 10,000 miles on a new factory engine. Thinking about dropping it some, flat black paint job and some chrome rims.

One thing MWS1994, it has patina that more are just making up and is solid.

That is a good looking truck, not a color combo often seen.

Re: How about some pics of 73-87 Long Beds?

Yeah it's very nice. I'm looking to get one this color very soon so I was curious, other than this truck, if there were anymore like it on here. I've only seen 3 trucks this color ever.

Artwork for my new t-shirt designed by my talented 11 YO son on PowerPoint. he used a pic of my truck, applied a cartoon effect and then made it black and white. looks cool on a gray t-shirt.

Re: How about some pics of 73-87 Long Beds?

I have a question for yall, How many 73 GMC/ Chevy 3/4 ton trucks came with 3 fuel tanks? Because my 73 GMC 2500 Super Custom has 3. And I have never came across another like mine. Just an up date guys. I replaced the alternator, spark plugs and coil pack. Mine still wont start. I forgot to replace the starter.

Re: How about some pics of 73-87 Long Beds?

My close friend got this from the original owner a few years back for a few hours worth the work, I got it from him this winter for a good deal, finished a 7" drop did a oil change and tune up, and i've put about 3,000 miles on it, not bad for working 2-3 months straight out of state! and now looking for tires wheels a new interior got new mirrors, few holes to fill and some gold flake metallic black paint and next year, 502 ramjet and 5spd, or a 496 out of this motor

nice trucks on here guys!

78 2wd 454 (90,000) original 4spd 3/4 ton



Next to my roomate/brother in laws 79, this winters other project, full bags.



Kid i work with
6.2, 383 stroker in the crew cab 8'' 37''s and a factory 350 in the burb

It was a axle flip in the rear, and standard 3'' drop westernchassis drop spindles in the front, with about 2 full rungs cut off the springs, should be somewhere around should be close to 9'' drop in the rear and between 7-8 in the front, will measure when i get back home, so excited to drive it never thought about it.

not sure on the year on the military truck, also many of you followed this thread awhile back

Re: How about some pics of 73-87 Long Beds?

Yea they are pretty cool trucks, my To Do list is pretty long after driving it a couple days. I figure after a couple of trips to the salvage yard it will be good to go.
