    • Jeers! This is a work truck, why are they treating and pricing it like a Cadillac?

Every wish you could still buy a New 1977 GMC 1 ton Crew Cab???

1977 GMC Sierra Classic 1 Ton Crew Cab Long Box 2 wheel drive, with the Optional Camper Special Package.

It has 21,000 ORIGINAL MILES and is ALL MATCHING NUMBERS to every detail!!! It has the ORIGINAL & VERY GLOSSY 2 Tone RPO 68 Russet Metallic & RPO "60" Santa Fe Enamel Paint , Special RPO "64D" Buckskin & Brown 2 Tone interior ( Only available as an option in 1977!!! ), Original Radiator, Motor, Trannny, Tires, Engine components and All drivetrain. ( Any items that have been removed, such as the Carb. and Distributor, have been packed and stored and come with the truck)

It's equipped with the RARE optional RPO LF8 7.4L (454 ci) Big Block, 2.5" Factory Dual Exhaust, turbo 400 automatic transmission, EXTREMELY RARE - Special Ordered RPO "NY1" FUEL TANK SHIELDS, Tilt, Cruise Control, Rear Sliding Window, Factory A/C (Works Like BRAND NEW, original R-12) Of all the Square Body (73'-80') GM Trucks (both Chevrolet & GMC) only a Very Very Very Small number of the 1 Ton Crew Cab trucks came in the Top of the Line Trim Level, RPO YE9. Most were plain jane work trucks.

This Truck was special ordered locally from Western Pontiac Buick GMC in 1977!!!

It was also special ordered with a few items from the GM Accessory Catalog in 1977, they are:

- In-line "Cartridge style" frame mounted, Heavy Duty AC Fuel Filter (Seen in the pictures, this item was installed at the dealer before received by original owner)

- Poly-Wrap Air Cleaner "Pre-filter", NEVER was installed OR removed from it's plastic wrapping, With it's Original Box !!! ( Seen in 3rd last picture) Amazingly, It received its own place on the RPO Decal !!! As an RPO Code: K43

- Genuine GM Accessories "Bug Deflector", has NEVER been installed, and is in it's original foam wrapping

- GOODYEAR - Heavy Duty G159 SPECIAL ORDER Highway Tires (These were factory installed and were on the truck before it was received by the original owner, the spare tire has NEVER been used and is the Standard Factory Radial tire that comes factory installed )

For Aftermarket Parts that have been installed, they are:

- Edelbrock 750 cfm Carb W/Electric Choke

- MAGNAFLOW Performance "High flow" Mufflers with Manderal Bent 2.5" Tail pipes

- Performance HEI Distributor

- Transmission Temperature Gauge

- Tachometer

Note:

- The Rear Bumper IS what came on the truck from the dealership from new (The Original Owner Confirms this as a Fact)

- My Father (the current ower) is 2nd owner of the truck

- This Truck has been METICULOUSLY CARED FOR, MAINTAINED & Stored inside most of its entire life !!!

- THE TRUCK HAS NEVER EVER BEEN DRIVEN IN SNOW!!!

- THE TRUCK HAS NEVER BEEN SMOKED IN AND HAS NEVER EVER HAD ANY FOOD OR DRINKS ALLOWED IN THE VEHICLE

- THE TRUCK HAS HAD SEAT COVERS ON THE SEATS SINCE DAY 1 & WERE REMOVED FOR PICTURES

- THE TRUCK HAS HAD FULL LENGTH PLASTIC ON THE CARPET SINCE DAY 1

- THE TRUCK HAD THE HUBCAPS REMOVED ON DAY 1, PUT IN FOAM WRAPPING AND THEN INSTALLED AFTER MY FATHER PURCHASED THE TRUCK

THE ONLY NOTABLE FLAW'S:

- On the flat front of the hood

- One small spot on the drivers door

- One small spot between the door hindges

The Original paint peeled, IT IS a minor problem that Can be easily fixed.

- The tops of the door panels have fading even though it had been stored inside, professional re-dying of the door panels can be gladly provided to new owner.

MORE pictures can be sent by e-mail on request!!!

It's a truck for camping and work, not a caddy and besides, the amount of rust on the engine makes me suspect about the miles. I get my built in caution detector going off on this ride.

The Mileage is VERY real!

I know this because it's my fathers truck! :D

It was special ordered from a local GM dealership here, if anyone wants more pictures you more then welcome, I have a ton.

I did try to attach some to this message but I can not figure it out.

We both have several low mileage 73'-80' gm trucks, I have a 1980 GMC Sierra Classic that also has the same mileage, actually, 34,000 Kilometers & a 1980 Chevrolet Silverado 20 4X4 LOADED with 74,000 original Kilometers.

If anyone needs and help, etc on these trucks, just ask because we specialize in these trucks, and are a GM NOS and Premium used parts supplier world wide for these.

I would like more pictures, as I'm a huge fan of all things GMC (and Chevy) Truck. Please send me a PM for my email address. I hope one day to have a '73-'79 GMC Sierra (Classic, preferred) myself.
