New to me - A few new toys to play with

Here is the 87 Longbed I picked up. Has an EFI 454 / 2wd / Turbo 400.
Has about 180k on the clock but is super clean and is rust free. This one gets employed as my new tow vehicle once I get a few things up to spec.

Maybe a toy / maybe a parts truck. This is either a 78 / 79 or so SWB. Lots of rust in the cab but bed is solid and driveline is solid. It's a bit of a mess but has lots of good parts. I am either going to scavenge parts for a 2WD swap on a 4WD Jimmy due in this weekend, or straight parts or fix the cab. Regardless - its rough.

very nice 87 and the 78/79 I would use for a parts truck.

Yeah,.. that GMC is real clean!

I'm liking that color scheme.. good deal!

180K aint nuttin... them is just broke in miles.... shoot, mine had 400K on her before the engine got swapped out.. still ran good too... just wouldn't pass emmisions anymore.

Thanks guys. The 87 is far from mint but it is really solid and is going to get very well used!! :)

Something tells me it won't make it quite that far. Looks like a great CCSB donor, though.
