Re: 73-87 before and after pics

1987 GMC Wrangler, before(the day i got her) and after. Last one is most recent from this summer. Don't worry, i never drove her in the winter. Just bought it that time of year. Salt up here would kill it.

Those most recent pictures were from when I took the truck to my senior prom in high school. I'll get some pictures tomorrow (when I get home from college) of the correct '83 grille and the new interior.

That crew cab is money. I liked the two tone brown/tan, myself, but the grey/black is also a killer combination. Some specs? Two thumbs up from me!

A tired warrior of the 1980s in a world of low profile tires, front wheel drive, and plastic bumpers, where people stay in their houses until snowplows move the offending substance from their paths, too helpless to travel without AAA and chains and salt, clearing their windows with longhandled brushes while gently stepping around in the snow trying to stay nice and dry.

Re: 73-87 before and after pics

That's what I thought they were. My rallys are 15x7. I'm thinking 255 70 15 but they won't look that nice.
