Any original squares out there?

Shame that one can't be saved. Interesting to see Siverado equipment on a sixer.

I wish I could have saved it to. This one has the Cheyane package. I bought it for all the a/c, power steering, and power brake parts. I’m keeping my truck stock with the 6 cylinder and I couldn’t find the ac or power steering brackets anywhere. I will be using this cab so some of this truck will live on.

Was gonna put mine out here, but different wheels ,newer bed, seats been redone, painted once(same color),engine changed(still 350), hubs added, now part time 203, the list goes on!!!....NOT original!!

same with my '77. I would have kept it original but it was in such bad shape when I got it, it was either replace everything or send it to the junkyard. So while replacing everything it also got a heavy dose of mods along the way. Original is better but changed/modified is better than scrapping it

Currently at 12,532 miles. It has an interior swap out of another blazer but the paint engine and all the components are original.

My dually is original other than the front clip (replaced by previous owner due to a fender bender) and I have my suspicions about the passenger front door being aftermarket. Other than treat, original with 75k on the clock.

Thanks, man!! Hoping things pick back up with it once I have all the materials I need for paint. Been kinda slow going with winter and just gathering stuff lol

The only thing on my Burb I willingly replaced was suspension and wheels/tires. They're stock rallye wheels from my last square, but this specific truck came with hubcaps (yes I still have them and the white steelies). The suspension was in need of a replacement anyway due to being old and worn out, so I figured I may as well remedy the station wagon look while I was at it. 2" spring kit and gas shocks, nothing crazy. Kept the quads.

I removed the emissions parts while trying to chase down what was eventually discovered as a bad ECU, though I did save them. The truck also has a B&M trans cooler installed by the PO because 700R4. But other than that, the interior is stock, body panels are stock (I replaced the front bumper with a spare I had laying around from another 87 after an accident, and I have had to replace both the front and rear windshields over the years, and I have a suspicion the PO replaced the rear doors). Unfortunately I also spray painted the body to protect the bare metal from rust as it was a desert truck and almost all the paint had been sunburned off and was surface rust, though I plan to repaint it to factory color when I get the chance (or another garage to do it in lol, don't worry we're looking at houses again already).

Originally I wanted to keep this truck as stock as possible, and I still do. As I said, the suspension and wheels were really the only modifications I made and they're still pretty low key. Everything else was essentially repair/maintenance.

I would consider my 79 when I got it to be pretty close to stock.
Original drive train, original body (what hadn't rusted away, besides drivers fender), everything else original except for drivers door handle, speedo, horn button, and seat cover, and had one repaint.
And of course the regular maintenance stuff was changed (brake pads, filters, some hoses)

Every emissions device still intact with all the vacuum lines. Y pipe, stock cat, stock replacement muffler and tailpipe.

The seat had been reupholstered, speedo was swapped with a 73-75 and the drivers inner door handle was a 73-76, otherwise all og 79 stuff. Still had the delco AM radio and dash speaker (which despite its poor appearance still works)

Your 79 is the coolest thing in my opinion. About a year ago I found a 70’s K10 and a Blazer both rotting away in the woods for $500. That’s what got me started on the search for square bodies until I found my stepside

thanks! Its got 42000 on it now. I bought it with a little over 19000.

That’s insane
