New to me, 1986 Crew Cab 4x4 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

New to the forums. Thought I show off my 1986 3500 4x4, Crew Cab, Auto Long Bed, dual tanks. Got it off ebay at the end of June. It's an ex-Air Force truck out of the mid-west with only 46K miles. Pretty much a "Plain Jane" with AC, PB and PS, no radio. No rust in the truck or bed. I'm currently in the process of making it a "Chase Truck" for our hot air balloon biz here in Virginia. I'll be pulling the bed off and building a custom flatbed with a liftgate which will have aluminum side boards and custom side panels with wheel cut outs to cover the fuel tanks , installing new seat covers, carpet, dash and door panels, while adding some chrome trim/mirrors and running boards/steps outside.
