I bought another one !
I have wanted a good truck to pull with but dont really need a new truck . I found a 1987 3/4 ton and brought it home today . It is Brown with a tan interior . This thing is a Silverado and fully loaded , 350 , auto ,and a 4.10 rear axle. There are no rips ,tears ,or cracks in the interior at all . The odometer rolled over to 54,000 on my way home . It is suppose to be original miles and not 154,000 . Looking at the truck , I believe it . I will post some pics this weekend after it is cleaned up . It was a neat little trip to North Tx today . I seen many , many trucks on Hwy 19 . I drove up in my 77 pulling my flatbed and drove back with the 77 on the trailer with no incidents . Nice, peaceful trip . Frank

Re: I bought another one !
Well done Frank. You continue to find those low mileage nice trucks out there and I may have to come see you with my trailer again.
Be sure and post pictures of your new acquisition when you get em. Take care.

Re: I bought another one !
I went to Sulphur Springs ,Tx . It was between there and Emory ,Tx. BTW , gas is 2.519 in Emory(Emery ?) Tx . It was higher by 15 cents everywhere but there . I seen many trucks with potential on the trip . 2 64-66 Big back window short beds , Probably 10 or more 73-87 trucks for sale including a white long bed 87 in Canton , A real neat looking Green 2 wheel drive blazer with Weld Draglites in Pallestine, Tx . It may have been full convert but I cant remember . Unfortunately I didnt have my camera or the time to look at any of them .
6772fan- Gary , I will post some pics this weekend hopefully . The brown need to be waxed so I want to clean it a little before I photo it . Dont get me wrong , it looks good right now but I know what freshly waxed brown paint looks like . Frank
