firebird86 ◊ 2009-05-23 05:39	Im not sure.. I dont see a front drive axle housing shadow and the truck looks a little nose-down. Id be willing to bet its a C-25 at minimum, comments?
Ddey65 ◊ 2009-05-23 05:47	Well, it looked a little high. Also, those are fishing pole holders on the grille, which convinces me this guy uses it to tow a boat out to anywhere between Jones Beach and Montauk, or simply drives the thing on the beach to cast his line on the shore. We know it's a 1980. That's for certain. -- Last edit: 2009-05-23 05:51:14

Ford_Guy ◊ 2009-05-25 21:06	This has been made clear numerous times before ... A name like Sierra Classic would have only been considered the trim back then and not the model name, so it should stop being added as such. Neptune, where are you?
Neptune ◊ 2012-07-23 04:42	Well... I'm only three years late, but, its rear-wheel drive only. The independent front suspension (IFS) with contoured lower control "A" arms and coil springs is visible. It also more than likely had the Sierra Grande equipment package, as they featured spear-type body-side molding on pickups with the Wideside pickup box.
