Description for GMC K30 1987

Up for sale, we have a 1987 GMC pickup truck 3500 1 ton 4x4. It has gone through a fresh, ground-up restoration with less than 100 miles on it.


For the record, we bought the truck from Arizona. Being in a great, 100% rust-free original condition, it was the perfect fit to go under a frame-off restoration. The restoration process started with the exterior of the truck. The body was first pulled apart to the smallest screw, and the entire parts of the body were sandblasted. All the parts were then covered in epoxy primer. After the body work was completed, a high-quality paint job was done on every single part, piece by piece. The black paint was then buffed and polished to a deep rich shine.


Next, the chassis was sandblasted and then sprayed with a high-quality chassis saver paint. All the nuts and bolts with their original pipes were sent for zinc plating before installation. The Dana 60 axles were pulled apart, sandblasted, and sprayed with a high-quality chassis saver paint. Then they were resealed and installed. Next, a brand new brake system and all bran new suspensions were put on.


After the completion of the process discussed above, a brand new big block 454 upgraded crate engine with a serpentine belt and a high performance intake manifold was installed. The transmission was also upgraded to a brand new electronically controlled 40L80E with a factory wiring harness and computer. The truck also comes with a 205 transfer case. A 4-inch brand new lift kit was also installed on the truck.


In the final step, all the body parts were installed back with extreme attention to detail and professionalism as you can see in the photos.
