newbie/new truck

I have been on here a few months "lurking" as they say. I have always had lifted trucks but never a lowered 2wd. I bought one a couple days ago so I am just sayn HI and showin my new project.

1985 Silverado short box 2wd,
Fully loaded originally Indian Bronze and Doeskin tan with Mahogany Interior. This truck is kinda strange it only has one fuel tank from the factory. I have never seen a fully loaded Silverado with one tank. I have also included a picture of my 12 year "garage ornament" that I recently sold.

Thanks for the info on here!!

Re: newbie/new truck

Welcome to the board! Very nice truck too! My '85 is also a loaded Silverado with a single 16 gal tank....sucks very much bad for cruising range.
