Description
Lot #48.1 - A well-maintained 30-year-old historic build by Boyd Coddington. This rust-free Arizona truck has 93,000 original miles and is powered by its original throttle body-injected 350ci engine and automatic transmission. This matching-numbers car retains its original glass, stainless-steel headers and the original Boyd-designed custom exhaust system. The suspension, A-arms and coil springs were modified, lowering the truck by 9". The outside tailgate latch was moved to the inside. The stock taillights were removed and a metal roll pan, including custom taillights, was installed. The gas filler door was removed, creating the sleek appearance of the side panel by tucking the gas cap inside the rear wheel well. The fenders were modified slightly improving the bed’s lines, and a vinyl-covered aluminum bed cover designed by Boyd was installed to complete the final California styling. Collectible items accompanying the truck include two February 1988 issues of Truckin’ magazine, a framed T-shirt featuring the pickup that Boyd presented to the original owner, the first photo taken when the build was completed, a second photo taken by Holley for their catalog cover, the original 1988 GMC Sierra owner’s manual, original GMC Light Duty Truck Warranty, Owner Assistance Information card, booklet that includes the owner’s names, VIN, Delivery/In Service date (12/18/87) and the mileage at delivery (12 miles), and the original 1988 GMC Light Duty Truck maintenance Schedule.
