The square body crews are also rare but are not as hard to find. Here are some pictures of long bed crew cabs. Not mine.
Love the crew cab long beds!!!!

To each their own I guess, I really like the aftermarket grille. Much more than the stocker on that particular truck.

I only put the GMC one on there to keep people from getting to the hood release, It was taken off when I got the aftermarket tube grill besides my truck is a Chevy not a GMC

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

Here are some pics of the 1986 K20 I bought for $800 it needs a cab uber bad because rust I could pour golf balls through the cowl into the cab , strangely the bed is in great shape other than faded paint and a small dent , it has a 350 4 speed with a 208 transfer case and factory dual exhaust .
