If i can remember correctly... The name of the color is "Saddle Tan", My dad had it painted once since he bought the truck back in 1989. This paint job's been on the truck like 15 years....

A 1986 K-10 Silverado, Special ordered Tangier Orange, with Dark Burgundy interior, Tilt, Cruise, A/C, AM/FM Cassette, All power. Sitting stock height, but with a set of 32-11.50's on factory rallies. Has a new Target Master 350, a new transmission. Been sitting in the garage for over a year, so these pics are what you get until I get a new battery installed, and take some more. Original miles are 50443. The original block froze and busted, from a previous owner's non-up keep. Bought off the local Chevrolet Dealer's showroom floor in 1998, and they sold the truck when it was new. Only put @11,000 miles on it in 12+ years.

And here is one I had in 1987-88, hence the old picture. Wish I had it back. Original 6cyl. truck, but had a built 350, 4 speed, 3.42 posi, 4" lift kit, good wood in the bed, chrome roll bar, 15 x 10 wheels with 33/12.50 mudders. A super nice truck. One dent in the top of the cab, where it was driven into a low hanging tree limb at Talladega, at the race. After I sold it, the next owner painted it black. No idea where it is now.

I've been thinking about getting a set of Foose Legends, what are the specs of the wheels and your truck (tire size and make, wheel width and backspacing, suspension)? Thanks

the truck is lowered with 3 in drop spindles in the front and 5 in in the rear. The wheels are foose 20x8.5 in the front with 14mm offset and 20x10 in the rear with 20mm offset. the front tires are 245/40/20 cooper zeons and the rear tires are 265/55/20. These tires are fairly reasonable areound $700 for a set. I bought the rims off of ebay at a good deal, only $1200 for the wheels and they are $2000 off the website.

Here is my 86. 305/700R4, 1.25 coils cut out of each side and 1 leaf removed. She's mostly done, I need some clear sidemarkers, and not the ones from LMC.
