81-87 or 73-80???
My buddy went after this truck last weekend,
and shot a picture of this one for me. Based on the tail gate ( since that is all we can see... ) What year/s is it? I am putting my money on 81-87, but i am having a brain fart about the GMC tail gate. The shutter on the camera didn't open all the way, or we could have seen the front end....

Agree on an 80's truck, looks like it has the doors on the bed for the gas.

Agreed, 81-87. It appears to have the same tailgate as my Dad's 85.

Re: 81-87 or 73-80???
My 73 had a cargo light, so it obviously has nothing to do with determining the year. You can tell by the TG alone...unless it is not original to the truck.
