Re: 87 chevy panel truck???

Someone posted this a while back. If it's from Mexico it could be a panel.

Re: 87 chevy panel truck???

It`s much shorter than a Suburban and the rear sheetmetal is different.These are made for the market south of the border,as well as made there.I`m not sure if they are Mexican or Brazilian or ???

Re: 87 chevy panel truck???

I saw this one while I was in Alcupoco (sp?) a few years ago. I wanted to check it out a little closer, but it was on a dark side street and, well, you know...

But it was definatly a Panel, no filled in windows:











Looks like a newspaper owns it, probably spends it's life delivering papers.

Re: 87 chevy panel truck???

Those are pretty cool, never seen one of them before. Def not a filled sub, the proportions are diff, looks like a lwb reg cab chassis.

I'm thinking short wheel base too. These are pretty cool looking. I kinda want one.
