Back in the game...1 owner '87 GMC shorty

Well, after a three or four year hiatus I am officially back in the square body game . I previously had an '87 swb which was a nice truck, but I was a little dissappointed in it's overall mojo. She had some issues like iffy paint that I couldn't get over so I sold her. Solid 10 footer but we just didn't bond.

So I know a guy...he's always got a driveway full of my kind of chevy trucks from 67-current. I stopped by today to look at a late model 2wd/2dr Tahoe but I couldn't get over the '87 GMC sitting next to it. He was trying to sell it, and we made a trade deal for my '99 plus a little scratch. This is a bona-fide ONE OWNER TRUCK, purchased locally and sold to my guy who has been after it for years just a couple weeks ago. So technically, two owner but the title is still in the original owner's name. The mileage reads 54k, my first guess is 154k but I could be convinced otherwise...will be researching. Absolutely everything works, even the dual tanks! It has a new engine and transmission, factory stock replacements. There are a few dings and some bubbles in the lower door corners but I'd rather get one like this than previously messed with. The first drive blew me away, it stopped perfect, no wind noise, tight steering, the works. I kept waiting for the let down and it never came.

Booyah! I'll get some better pics when it lands in my driveway.
