new to this side of the board. and new truck!!- picture
Hey guys, im usually over on the 72-87 side of the forum, but today things changed. My dad and i made a trip over to swift current saskatchewan and i bought myself a truck. 1988 GMC Sierra SLE long box. 305 auto, the whole works! (pw, pl, tape am/fm) must been top of the line when it first came out. And best of all, it only set me back 1500 bones.
I Dont know much about this year yet, but thats why im here! Here is one picture from the ad, ill get some more up tomorro when its bright out.

Re: new to this side of the board. and new truck!!- picture
do some engine work.305's are notoriously gutless. otherwise looks like a very nice truck. SLE is the top end truck from that era.

Re: new to this side of the board. and new truck!!- picture
Nice truck you got dude!
I have a '89 silverado C1500, loaded with everything and love it! Its been in my family since new and practically grew up with it. I posted in your other thread about gettin more power out of your 305. 305s are good motors. What restricts them are there damn small heads. I think there peanut port heads I think. IDK? Anyways, nice truck! Last edited by lha1992; 02-27-2011 at 02:20 AM. |
