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

Howdy fellas, new here and picked this up last week, It's an 87 with the TBI. Has about 70K on it. It needs some work like getting the interior back together, the trans is toast and a buddy and I yanked that out last night. Four wheel works, has cruise but don't know of that works yet. Guy I bought it from said the AC works just needs recharged but I've had lots of folks tell me that buying an older vehicle.

Has some of the typical rocker, can corner and wheel well rust but for a truck that's been in kansas all its life its pretty damn solid! The Midwest winters can be hard on vehicles, I'm sure some of you know that.

Plans.....

Have the trans rebuilt, put the interior back together it needs new carpet or rubber mat. Give it a good mechanical once over, brakes, fluid changes, new u joints ect. Probably new shoes before winter and maybe a minor lift. We shall see where I go with this.
