new guy old truck

Hey all,
I am so glad I found this site. There have already been many questions answered here that have helped me out to locate parts.
Long story short.
This was my grand fathers truck. He bought it as a retirement truck (he was a general contractor for 50 years). He got all the bells and whistles offered on this year for the most part. After my grand father passed in 89 grand ma offered it to me in 92. Yea I was all over that. 32000 miles on it at that point 220000 on it now. Can't ever sell it. I will post pics tommorrow unless I can get some tonight. Color is dark burgandy with a silver insert. Grandpa had a good choice of colors.

Welcome aboard man...maybe I skimmed over it, but what year is your truck...from the description it has to be late 77-79, so it's awesome to have another dentside owner on the board. Enjoy yuor stay and post often.

sounds like a gen 6 to me as well fella's....


No doubt it is...a camper special would make it no later than a 79 and the 400 would make it no earlier than 77.

oops sorry guys 1978

Since they dropped the SCS designation before 78, that means you have the big ol spare tire door in your bed and you have a 140" wb?
