Nice truck .

83GMCK2500 · 04-08-2013, 09:51 PM

Beautiful looking, very nice work. It looks like a 1977, am I correct? What did you do to the suspension when you rebuilt it? Are those original leaf springs or has it been lifted?

**MusicMan70** · 04-08-2013, 10:48 PM

Boy, that cleaned up really nice! Congratulations. More pics too please.

I see a bunch of post of trucks over in the middle east. They must be pretty popular over there!

Remon. · 04-09-2013, 05:25 AM

Nice!!

What's with the original look in the Middle East? You guys just like that or is it required by the government or something? The same with the cab light?

Have to say that you guys do a great job preserving these squares!

There is a really nice 85 or so on Craigslist here in oregon. Are you guys interested in those years?

This one,

shkj2004 · 04-29-2013, 11:47 PM

We cannot import this truck
Because its 85. We can import only 83 and what ever down. Means 30 years and older.

OR 2008 and newer

Your truck very nice

Ah i see. Good to know. You could buy this 78 but its not as nice as the truck you bought!

SlowYourRoll · 04-30-2013, 04:37 AM

I've never been to SA, but I have been in Bahrain a few times, the one thing my friends and I noticed, no gas stations in sight! In the US, they are everywhere! So, seeing as you are in an area full of oil, how much does gasoline cost? Here in San Diego, it's about $4USD/gallon right now. Also, in Bahrain, there were crazy round abouts, about 4 or 5 lane circles that everyone seemed to just plow into very quickly, follow around a few times, and jump out of. I thought our cab driver was nuts. I can only imagine a truck this big in one of those = king of the road! Can you take some pictures of what driving is like over there for us (carefully lol)?

Ammmmm. About saudi arabia. Gas station in any where you want. And for one gallon ( .52$ ) means nothing for us. The water more expensive
About pictures. I will take some next day's
