How about some pics of 73-87 Long Beds? - Page 10 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Thanks Kenny. It was repainted in 1988, but has been a garage kept Southern truck (TX) it's entire life and never wrecked. I've been a lurker here for a while and I've always liked your truck.

New to the board so I thought I would post a pic of my 88 R30 Dually doing what it does best.

Big 10, thanks.

interestingly my neighbor growing up (Velma OK) had basically your truck w/ a factory 454. at 16, I had basically my current truck (same color combo) w/a 350 and the rare orange interior. my current truck is a a factory 454 Bonanza but loaded out.

will have to look you up in Tulsa

Dang looks like twins to me. I like the look your has.

BIG10 · 05-05-2009, 07:22 PM

Thanks truckfan. I love the color combo on your truck. I found an original grille on Craigslist I'm trying to get this week and I've removed the chrome hood protector now. Going for a more factory look. If I can get it done this weekend I'll post pics.

BIG10 · 05-06-2009, 01:10 PM

Yes, truckfan, pm me if you ever make it down this way. Come out for a car show or something.
