It was a 1982 GMC 3/4 ton truck, I believed I paid $8500 and used it till 1990 (my sister purchased a 1991 Mercury Sable, and I inherited her 1987 Renault Alliance, and the GMC was one car to many for me so I had my sister trade in it on the Sable). Good truck, three speed Manual Transmission with a "Creeper" gear (i.e. Four Speeds, Low, 1st, 2nd and 3rd, Low was to be used when you loaded the truck with to much to go in 1st).
Anyway, I hope you like your purchase (I like my 1982 GMC, I abused it and it kept on running).
I am looking at Waterford (which is decedent from the Schwinn Paramount production pre-Schwinn bankruptcy). They start at $1400 just for the low price frame, parts are extra.
