You can haul a lot of apples in this Apple Red 1984 GMC Sierra Classic 3500 Wideside Crew Cab Camper Special pickup. This truck barely fits in the frame, it’s so long! Even the name is long for this 164.5-inch wheelbase, one-ton, 20.5-foot, six-passenger 2WD truck. The seller has this big beauty posted here on eBay in Lakewood, Washington. There is no reserve, and the current bid price is $5,100.

GMC (and Chevrolet) offered these big, four-door pickups with the name of Crew Cab with seating for six passengers, and also a Bonus Cab, which didn’t have a back seat. It was used for storage rather than seating. This truck definitely has room for at least three big adults back there, and it looks almost like new. Please click on the eBay link and check out the photos, the graphic gurus at GMC were working overtime on this truck with fun details like the 3+3 logo and a stylized tent on the B-pillar to show that this is a Camper Special. There are a few dings and normal scrapes, nicks, and scratches on the exterior as expected.

The third-generation GMC C/K-Series pickups were made alongside Chevy’s pickups from 1972 through 1991, and is what most of us would call a normal pickup box or bed. This one is what GMC (and Chevy) called a Wideside. Ford called it a Fleetside, Jeep called it a Townside, etc. What most folks call a stepside, GMC called a Fenderside. Ford called them Flareside, and Dodge called theirs a Utiline. As with the fuel filler door location, there wasn’t a consensus on what to call these things. Here’s what it looks like back there, no matter what it’s called.

The dash crack isn’t surprising to see in a 41-year-old truck, or really any vehicle. Keep those sunshields in your windshields, folks! I use mine every single time I stop, even at red lights. Just kidding, but I really do use it every time I park outside. Most people buying a huge, tough, one-ton pickup aren’t concerned with making it last and keeping it like new for decades; they bought it for a purpose, and that’s for hauling, either people or stuff, or both. Hagerty is at $18,000 for a #3 good-condition truck, and depending on any rust issues or anything like that, this one is a steal at the current bid price.

This example is also a Camper Special (there’s a cool little tent logo on the B-pillars as mentioned earlier), so it would be the ultimate rig to slide a camper onto the back and head out on the road. It’s also a Sierra Classic, the highest trim level. The burgundy seats look almost like new, and other than the crack on the dash and some fading up there, this one looks great. Although what’s going on here on the upper right side? That looks like body filler on the top part of the front passenger door opening? The seller says this truck still has its original paint, and the body is rust-free, so I’m not sure what that stuff is.

This is no measly power source here; this is Chevy’s 454-cu.in. OHV V8, which had 230 horsepower and 360 lb-ft of torque when new. It looks nice and clean under the hood, and in fact, this whole truck looks great. It just looks like it wasn’t used up like a work truck; someone seemed to care about this one, and I can see why, it’s just plain cool. The transmission is a four-speed automatic sending power only to the rear wheels in this case. They say it runs and drives well, and everything works but the air-conditioning. Any thoughts on this big Crew Cab?
