My Grandpa sent my 16 year old (at the time) uncle down to the dealership to order a new work truck late in 1976. He picked those colors on a 77 GMC Sierra Classic. 454, TH400, wood bed, pw, pdl, cruise, AC, tilt, tach, dark green interior, factory CB etc. I drove it for about 5 summers when I was in high school and college when I would head to Portland and work for my other uncle who ended up with it. That's what really got me started into these trucks.

I plan to build my 86 SWB in those colors.
