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

Kinda late, I know, but here's my project 86 Sierra.

I'm putting a 6.0L with 4l80E, Dana 60, etc. Right now the paint is in not too great of shape. The body is straight and no rust anywhere. Painting it Cyber Grey Metallic, same color that you can get on new Vettes and Camaros. Interior is black.

Truck looks great with that 73 grille! I always favored the 73/74 grille best on the round light trucks.

Ok, I've never seen the Sierra Grande emblem like that one before. I've always seen them in the more "hand written" style.
