86 chevy
Hey guys, I usaully hang out on the 60-66 side. But now I have a 86 that my father in law bought new. He called me the other day and said it was my Christmas gift if I wanted it. Heck yeah, who wouldnt take a free truck? I've had a few of these square bodies before so there not new to me, but I can always learn something new. Its an 86 3/4 ton with a 350 th400, 4.10 locking rear diff. Here are some pics!

Re: 86 chevy
Cheap is good, but free is better. You got a really nice Christmas present. Put some late model alloy 8 lugs on there and bring it to life...

Re: 86 chevy
Not any major rust problems at all. Not sure what I'm going to do with it, your right a bare bones custom deluxe. It does have a/c, just needs to be charged.
