1987 Chevrolet C10

Michael Moore saw the truck at Benicia Band's benefit car show and thinks it is channeled. They do bring out the gleam, in California. The truck is cool, Maybe an '86 or '87 Chevrolet C10 Stepside at the start of its life?
Whenever I see squares--and I don't very often, living (mostly) in the Northeast, where most '73-'87 squarebody survivors have plenty of rust, no plates and snowplows stapled to the front end--I think of our trucks in Maine and Texas.
