My new 1987 R10 Silverado (pics) - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**Captkaos** · 08-02-2005, 12:38 PM

I thought I posted this here, but I can't find it (of course). But, here are the pics of the truck:

I am thinking about taking the carboard piece out and making a pattern for it. I always liked those, my fathers truck had one and it kept crap from flying everywhere.

bigblock73 · 08-02-2005, 12:46 PM

SO you have a new wife AND a new truck...I like the pics of the truck, but where are the pics of the wife?

PRUNEDA · 08-02-2005, 12:47 PM

Looks nice and clean.

What engine does it have?

79Silv4x4 · 08-02-2005, 01:17 PM

So, what are your plans for it?

**Captkaos** · 08-02-2005, 02:03 PM

well this is the only digital pic I have of her here:

Engine is a 1989 305TBI bottomend (original is long gone)

Plans are to continue to use it as a daily driver, so nothing really except to fix the problems: passenger side pump went out on the trip and cruise doesn't work

Ric83 · 08-02-2005, 02:07 PM

Sweet. It looks really good. Couldn't ask for anything else on a daily driver.

87 STEPPER · 08-02-2005, 07:12 PM

Nice find Chris.

Im not to crazy for the interior color but that can be changed easy enough.

MylilBowTie · 08-02-2005, 08:25 PM

Thats the first time I have ever seen a brown(?) interior. I wouldnt mind having it for a dd.

I think you did pretty good.

**swervin ervin** · 08-02-2005, 09:02 PM

Nice truck Chris. Why did you just have to have a 87. I'm guessing you wanted it to be TBI, right? Carb hater.

**N2TRUX** · 08-02-2005, 09:18 PM

You posted some pics on one of my "What did you get done" threads. I remeber dogging you about buying Paw-Paws fishing truck. Very nice driver.
BTW_ I think this might be the first time I have ever seen a picture of your lovely bride. She's a pretty lady with awesome eyes. Too bad she can't see out of them. If she could she would know what your skinny butt looks like.....

I would have responded last night Ken but I showed her a pic of you ( I was wearing my welding helmet

) and had to rush her to the eye doctor.

Yeah, I don't mind the interior, the exterior is what I don't really prefer. It isn't a big deal though, I just plan to drive it.

boxrodz · 08-04-2005, 01:17 AM

As the others have said, it looks nice and clean.

Hi, neighbor.

cliffsta · 08-03-2005, 12:14 AM

kickass truck bud. sweet find. i don't know the specs of the TBI 305, but i bet they are plenty good for a DD.

86swb · 08-03-2005, 08:34 PM

That engine compartment looks like it was kept nice and clean.

*mikesz* · 08-03-2005, 10:22 PM

I saw a truck today in griffin, GA that looked exactly like that for $7200. Same colors inside and out, wheels, bed bars, everything. Not sure if it had a tool box or not though. It was in pretty good shape. No flaws that jumped out at me. Is that price out of line?

Mike

Sounds high to me. But I have not seen the truck. Or do I know what year. Would have to be alful nice for that price. IMO

Well, I paid $3500 for this one if that tells you anything.

I can assure you there will be nothing done to this truck. There will however be A LOT done to the other trucks in the stable.

THE "10" SILVERADO · 11-30-2012, 12:57 PM

That's a blast from the past.

**LEEVON** · 11-30-2012, 01:30 PM

7 year old thread FTW! Let's see...in today's dollars with inflation he would have paid about $5000, however gas is now more expensive than crown royal so the real value of the truck today would be about $3500.
