For Sale: 1987 GMC 1500 in Newfield, New Jersey

Vehicle Description

The final year of the classic square-body GMC remains one of the most desirable, and this 1987 GMC V1500 Sierra Classic 4x4 combines that iconic styling with V8 power, four-wheel-drive capability, and an excellent list of factory-style comfort features. Finished in Dark Gray Metallic over a Blue cloth interior, this truck has the rugged stance enthusiasts want along with enough convenience to make it genuinely enjoyable on the road.

Power comes from a 5.7-liter V8 equipped with electronic fuel injection, a major advantage for 1987 and one of the reasons these final-year square-body trucks are so sought after. The fuel-injected small-block delivers easy starting, smooth operation, and dependable drivability, while the 700R4 four-speed automatic transmission with overdrive makes highway cruising more relaxed and comfortable.

The V1500 designation identifies this truck as a four-wheel-drive model, and it retains the traditional front and rear leaf spring suspension that gives these pickups their familiar heavy-duty feel. A 3.73 rear axle ratio provides a good balance between pulling power and road manners, while power steering makes low-speed maneuvering easy. Braking is handled by power-assisted front disc brakes and rear drums.

The Dark Gray Metallic exterior gives the truck a clean, aggressive look, especially with the 15-inch wheels and 35x10.50R15LT tires fitted front and rear. The larger tire package gives the GMC the proper lifted 4x4 stance without overwhelming the classic body lines. The pickup bed has been finished with a color-matched Rhino Liner, adding both durability and a clean, finished appearance.

Inside, the Blue cloth interior reflects the upscale Sierra Classic trim level and is complemented by a long list of convenience features. Power windows, power door locks, tilt steering, and cruise control make this GMC far more comfortable than a basic work truck, while the air conditioning blows cold and makes warm-weather driving especially enjoyable.

The audio system retains a factory appearance thanks to a rebuilt Delco AM/FM radio that has been upgraded with Bluetooth functionality. This allows modern wireless audio streaming while preserving the original look of the dashboard, a thoughtful improvement for anyone who appreciates classic presentation without giving up modern convenience.

Dual fuel tanks add useful range and are another desirable feature on a full-size four-wheel-drive pickup. The truck retains a single exhaust system, keeping the overall mechanical package straightforward and easy to service.

What makes this 1987 GMC especially appealing is the combination of final-year square-body styling and desirable equipment. The Sierra Classic trim, fuel-injected 5.7-liter V8, overdrive automatic transmission, cold air conditioning, power accessories, cruise control, Bluetooth-equipped Delco radio, and four-wheel-drive capability create a truck that is as comfortable to use as it is enjoyable to look at.

With its Dark Gray Metallic finish, Blue cloth interior, aggressive 35-inch tires, color-matched Rhino-lined bed, and well-equipped Sierra Classic cabin, this 1987 GMC V1500 4x4 offers the right blend of classic truck character and everyday usability. It is a strong choice for the enthusiast looking for a square-body GMC that is ready for cruise nights, local shows, weekend trips, and regular enjoyment.
