Yep - it's nice.

Not casting aspersions - but I sincerely wonder why the window sticker says St Louis for a final assembly location when it clearly has a Flint VIN:

H = 1987 model year
F = Flint Assembly
387275 = serial portion of VIN

I like how you can still see the build sequence number written on it:

Interesting news video in the comments section. Apparently this and around 25 other low mileage vehicles were owned by two brothers who were killed by police in a standoff. Brothers had over 1000 guns and 140,000 rounds of ammo but not sure what the standoff was over.

Didn't St. Louis close prior to this truck being assembled?

Man I just went down the rabbit hole on that. There's a 30 minute body camera video on Youtube ending with their demise.

I looked at it and all the photos. It was a very good reference point for me to compare mine to it. I also have an 87 V10 square, short bed 4 X 4 Custom Deluxe, all stock. If anything mine looked pretty good and mostly all original, including the undercoating spray on the firewall! Except mine has many more miles on it and has much work done to it.

$90,500 with 4 days to go.

No answer to my question regarding the assembly plant discrepancy.
