Back in a square

I was on the fence but decided to pull the trigger on a 85 GMC Sierra SWB. It has a 305/700R4, power windows and locks, cruise, tilt and dual tanks. Needs some work but getting it for a really good price. I didnt even have to haggle with the guy. He just kept lowering his price as we talked, lol. I`m picking it up Monday. This will be my daily driver but being that it`s 30yrs old its got some issues but nothing I cant handle. I miss my 83 C10 and this is a great replacement. I`ll get some better picks when I pick it up. It`s not pretty but I`m digging it.

Re: Back in a square

That's a good lookin truck. I have a gmc also. I know there's really no difference between the c10 and gmc but I like the gmc better b/c everything is a chevy. I hardly see gmc trucks.

Re: Back in a square

Thanks. Yeah there is no difference between chevy and gmc other than the badging but I actually prefer the gmc as well. My very first truck was a 75 gmc short bed stepside and my last truck was a 97 gmc. They do seem a little harder to find than the chevy which is another reason I like them as well.
