Are 87' Short boxes 2WD rare?
Im looking for a Silverado but they just don't seem to be out there? I think I may have to build one if I can find a frame.

Not around here, they are not.
I saw two (red ones) at the Woodward Dream cruise this week, in addition to my own. K

Only square body trucks that are rare are some of the very short lived trim levels like the wrangler.

Re: Are 87' Short boxes 2WD rare?
In Nov 86 I bought a 87 Sliverado Fleetside shortbox brand new. It was fully loaded, black with a charcoal interior. Cost $18900.00. I was 21 at the time, and drove like a 21 year old.... I believe most of the shortbox pickups in my area were purchased by young guys.... and wrecked. They bounce around a bit more than a long box, and are easier to loose control on "wash board" gravel roads. I know of at least six shortboxes that were rolled/destroyed in the mid/late 80's in my little area. Considering our small population, it's a lot of shortboxes. I also believe a lot more long boxes were sold. There still are a few around..... Don't see a lot of 87's..... but 81 - 86's show up on Kijiji fairly frequently.

I also live in Alberta, and I saw a mint 85 GMC Sierra Classic shortbox C15 today. First shortbox I've seen outside of a car show in at least two years.
