Crew cab, Shortbox, 4x4, 350 TBI, Automatic OD,

1985 Chevrolet C/K Pickup 2500 Description

THE CHEVY 357
It's my favorite, but I can't keep them all!
If Chevy would have made a crew cab shortbox in 1985, this is what they would've built (with upgraded seats!)
ALL GM parts with aftermarket wheels, radio and speakers - radio and speakers are in proper spots, dash & doors are NOT chopped up.
