picked up an '87 K/30
I have been looking at this truck for several months and finally pulled the trigger last night. 99k miles, original paint, 454/auto. Bone stock except new exhaust.

Re: picked up an '87 K/30
Nice 87 K30, is the 1 ton a fuel injected truck like the 1/2 tons that year or still carbed. Sure looks clean, think you did well.

Re: picked up an '87 K/30
Oh ya its fuel injected. That was the main reason I wanted an 87, I have a nice 86 with a carb. I have always wanted a bone stock 87 1 ton 4x4 with a 454/auto. I didnt really want a dark brown one, but its not a bad color.

Re: picked up an '87 K/30
That is one clean K30 usually they get all beat up but looks like the previous owner took good care of that one. Good Score.

Re: picked up an '87 K/30
The red dually is a pretty good original truck, not as nice as this one though. The white one is nice

Re: picked up an '87 K/30
Nice to have the fuel injection, even a good carb setup can be finicky from summer to freezing winter days.

Re: picked up an '87 K/30
I recognize the truck to once you mentioned the red dually and white dually. Just curious if you were able to bargain on price much. I know the trucks are getting harder to find but his prices are pretty steep in my opinion. Just wondered if he comes down in price much when things get serious and start flashin benjamins at him, lol

I have seen the ads and I thought prices were pretty decent. If that is the truck you want, I would rather pay more to start out with a super nice truck. |

Re: picked up an '87 K/30
These trucks are not cheap that's for sure! I have looked for a long time for a nice original truck like this and they are sure hard to find. This one is not perfect, but it sure is a nice stock, original truck. I did get him down some on his price.

I'm loving the brown on brown. Even a seat that's not ripped, that's a score! Congrats!

Re: picked up an '87 K/30
I really like the brown interiors. Not sure what it is about them but I think they look nice. Not to mention how little you see a brown interior. Congrats on the buy. I am sure it will serve you well.
