Funny you should mention that. I picked this lil creampuff up last year. 67K mile 1984 custom deluxe, has a straight 6 like yours and 3 on the tree shifting. The ONLY option it has is AC and it still works. Heck it doesn't have a radio or a cig lighter. But it gets driven a lot. Used to be the parts delivery truck for a dealer in Clarksville.

Will LS this one soon as well, but won't put a whistler on it.

Re: 1987 C10 SWB 34K miles...

Small update. In order to minimize the mileage on the 87, I picked up a nice original paint SWB 84 Silverado. It's not a clean as nice as the 87, but it's really nice. It's had a Ridetech Streetgrip suspension installed on it as well as a nice set of 20's. It's only has a 305/TH350, but it runs really well. I'll ride it as is until I can find a 6.0 LS motor to swap into it. Here's a few pictures.

I'm all kinds of diggin' the '84...you're going to be the C10 epicenter of Florida pretty darn quickly if you're not careful The Suburban caught my attention, too, a few days ago when I saw it on Instagram...cool color combo...haven't seen it before.

Thanks, its a really clean truck. One of my buddies refers to my place as C10 central .

The suburban is a really solid truck from Arizona. It's pretty loaded option wise, Tilt/cruise/dual air/PW/PDL, Bluetooth radio/towing package with 3.73 rear gear.

I'm just doing some mechanical work to it, complete brake job (rotors/calipers/bearing/drums/wheel cylinders), new shocks, oil/tranny fluid change and a tune up. I also installed a new front grill and headlight surrounds. It's for sale if anyone is interested.

Re: 1987 C10 SWB 34K miles...

Updated pictures with some new "temp" wheels. Also have a question about a 32 code in the 87. No lights until I installed true duals (with H-pipe). Now the light pops on (32 cod). Pulled the EGR and it looked perfect. Replaced the EGR anyway and the light still comes on. The rest of the system checks good, so I'm assuming it's a back pressure issue because of the new exhaust. Is there any fix to this other than getting a new chip with this EGR check deleted? Thanks in advance.

Very nice rob, they look similar to the ralle type mobsteel wheels. Did you figure out the egr issue on the white truck?

Thanks! I think it was just the exhaust not providing enough back pressure. I just ended up having a new chip with the code taken out.
