That's a Chevrolet truck of some kind (C-30?) |

1988 Chevrolet Scottsdale C30 Crew Cab |

you guys are pretty good at identifying cars |
◊ 2006-05-27 20:51 |
Yes they are incredible I remember at the begining of the site how difficult it was for identifying these US vehicles (or even worse: these pre-war vehicles). |

Wouldn't it be an R30 at this point? |

No, not really, General Motors switched back too the C and K letters after the 1987 model year. But they left the (full-size) Blazer and Suburban alone. They still went by the letters R and V… That said, I will say what I said before, someone working at GM (at that time) must have been on drugs, because GM’s classification of their (full-size) trucks is very confusing… |

Yeah agree. They should have kept with something well known th whole time, like C/K. |

I believe I found it here: Link to "www.cinemavehicles.com" It's listed as a 1987 model. Now I know the information that is up for this truck right now is incorrect as "Scottsdale" was only a trim name, not the model name. Neptune, your help is requested |

Neptune, I assume that you were the one who filled in the information? Anyhow, I had some questions. That website that I posted the link to isn't exactly reliable with the years. Based on the pictures, do you really think it could be a 1987 model, and therefore have the "R" name? And as for the extra info, wouldn't you normally list the trim first, example: Custom Deluxe Crew Cab? |

Yes, I was in a hurry If the site is unreliable, then we can default. The truck being a "30" (1-ton) has the grille used from ’85-’88. So an ’87 is possible. Only the "10" (1/2-ton) and "20" (3/4-ton) grade trucks ended for ’87. The 30 pushed on to ‘91. About the trim? I normally list the trim level after the cab name (keeping to a sort of format) Not really mandatory I suppose. I just do it for order. |

I think we can keep 1987 as the year. In this case, as you say, it is a possibility. But you've done it differently in the past, such as in this case: /vehicle_216351-GMC-C-35-1981.html |
◊ 2009-08-11 03:05 |
Ufff, That would be a mistake on my part, I was probably in a hurry that day. |

Personally, I like it better with the trim name immediately after, at least with these older Chevrolet/GMC trucks. It goes well, especially since a lot of trucks are named, for example: C-10 Silverado Fleetside where the trim is immediately after. That seems more uniform to me, but I'm not telling you what to do, so don't take it the wrong way. |
◊ 2009-08-11 03:28 |
I’m flexible, we can do that ... |
◊ 2009-08-11 03:32 |
Okay, but like I said, just with this generation of trucks would be okay. I'm not asking for a huge change |
