Arrow 1986 GMC Wrangler Edition

1986 GMC Wrangler edition Shortbox truck. Has beautiful blue interior with air and tilt with manual windows and locks. Powered by a 305 ci original engine with 4bbl Q-jet (625cfm Carter on for now as Q-jet gets rebuilt) and TH350 with only 200,000 kms about 120,000 miles. This truck has a stronger suspension (larger leaf springs and shocks) and it sits higher than a sierra. Special Wrangler badges, side emblems, hood ornament, and decals. This is the original paint and decal scheme. The Wrangler edition was only available in Canada. This truck resides in Saskatchewan. This needs a little cosmetic work over the rear tires (as all them do in this style) and a nice paint job. A lowering job would be nice and a 383 stroker. I am the second owner as the first owner lived across the street from my grandparents. I have had this truck for 8 years and it has been great. Your comments are greatly appreciated

Never new they made a Wrangler edition in '86. Sharp truck. Looks to be in great shape but I would put the air cleaner back on there before you get stuff in the carb. ( I am sure you would not drive it like that) would you?
