Pics of my first Chevy

[chevymotocross]

I've always been a Ford man. Started out with an 87 ranger. Then I went to a pretty sweet 78 f150 4x4. Gas was killing me on the 78, and with no overdrive, cam, holley 4 barrel, and other goodies, it was tough on a part-time pep boys job budget. I always wanted a 73-87 swb 2wd chevy. My father had an 86 a few years ago and many others in his lifetime. I really have been searching high and low. I really wanted silverado trim 87 with fuel injection to save some gas money. On top of trying to find a particular year, I needed to find something relatively clean close to me in Connecticut, which is nearly impossible in New England! 5 min away from my home I saw the black truck you see here. Of course it's an 87, with an all factory 305/700r4, and silverado trim, plus the color I wanted. Has minimal rust. Very solid. I never ad a truck with A/C and luxuries! What a difference! And people who don't know cars/trucks too well are amazed when I tell them it's an 87 and it has power windows and locks. Got it at $2200. What you guys think? Yes, I need to fix that gas tank door.
