Found a new truck!
Been looking for one like this for quite some time. Factory A/C and cab lights! And a Sierra Grande to boot 😁

Re: Found a new truck!
Similar to my own Sierra Grande except I have the white top on mine, but same blue color code I believe! It should clean up nicely, but I encourage you to drive it as is if it safe mechanically. I actually spent a couple of weeks fixing mine up before tearing it apart, I wanted to drive the "old" version of it a few times!

Re: Found a new truck!
Thanks folks!
Right now, I am planning to sort just a few small issues and drive it a bit! I have a coil spring suspension donor here, and I plan to swap over to 3OTT, which is what I really wanted. Otherwise? Replace the missing trim pieces and probably just a good scrub for now ��
