if u were a fan at all of the walking dead back in the day the thing i liked a lot about that show was it was full of old fords, chevies and random old farm trucks. i like chev/gmc most, nothing beats the hum of a v8 350 chebby. have you not seen one truck like this in sweden? (i dont mean tow truck, but a old chevy)

Mirin srs . I had an 84 but didn’t like the grill , so I changed it out to the 86 . Dumbest thing I did was bastardize it for car audio and sell it.
It was a stick to which is pretty rare . Just needed throw the 305 in the dump and install a LS6 454

I kind of had a reason and there’s a bit of a story that goes with it . If I could go back in time I wouldn't have basterdized it so much with the stero .
Had a blow threw for 2 -12 inch subs but got tinnitus right after I cut the hole . Going to our local theatre fked my hearing for life .
But I’m stupid enough to listen to people so it’s my fault for going in the first place.They had the sound up so loud that my right ear drum bent and I went deaf in that ear till the morning.
Unfortunately when some of the hearing recovered there was a permanent high pitch squeal in the ear .
But again I was at fault for listening to a retard who kept gas lighting about how great the sound system was at our movie theatre .
Srs the subs and tweeters were blown and all the was was this horrible fking midrange and mid bass

Not sure but that certainly sounds familiar. I opted out of clear coat on these because the last ones that were the same style looked like chit where the clear coat started peeling.
So much nicer being able grab some aluminum polish and make them look new again.
I like the old school look , as some people put wheels on that look too modern for the era

Yeah, I woulda stuck with no clear coat.

100% agree, need period correct rims.

Here is a similar 87 GMC for sale, paint scheme is the opposite of yours tho.

Ya that’s sweet as hell to . I like the reverse paint and if I was rich would have both versions. 87 is my favourite year ,as it was the last of the square body , well with exception to the blazer etc.
I’d love to back in a Time Machine and order an 87 with all the options , especially A/C
