I remember spec'ing out a '77 Stepside at $7k (IIRC), but didn't go for it. Might have been $6k. How much was yours?

My Dad bought a new '78 K10 Scottsdale SWB for $6200. It was mine for a few years too...

I bought a used '77 K10 Cheyenne in '78 right after I graduated high school, 16k miles, $5800.00. This is the truck I wish I still had.

The first invoice is how I ordered it originally. It got changed for the final order. I couldn't get the side mount spare with dual tanks and they didn't make a tach for a 6 cylinder. I also decided not to get the plow. I really wanted it to be dark green solid but they didn't want to order it that color because they said if I backed out of buying it, they would have had a hard time selling it so they threw in the two tone, roof only, for free. The second invoice is what I actually paid. I asked for the window sticker but it got ruined by mistake.
I had to sell it in 1980 due to my wife getting pregnant and truck payments needed to go away. Big mistake. I sold it to the Bethel Oil Company in Bethel ME. They were replacing a 69 Chevy that was pretty much the same truck. My truck is now on the farm of the owner of the oil company. It has 225000 on it, never been torn down but is rotted all to hell. They still use it all summer and plow with it on occasion.
In 1987 I bought a 1977 GMC 3/4 4wd 8ft. stepside from the Sate of MA. It was an old Forest Ranger truck. 350 4 speed. I owned it for 18 years until I gave into a guy bugging me to buy it. It was the color I wanted on my 78, Forrest Green. Because I had it so long, i miss that truck more than the one I ordered.
