Hello. I am the proud owner of a 1986 GMC C1500. My dad special ordered the truck in late 1985 and it has been in the family ever since. The first truck actually got totaled in December 1985 with 700 miles and a paper tag. He had to order again and wait on the replacement. It has a 305 (350 wasn't available with this trans), MY6 manual trans with OD, 3.42 Locking rear axle, HD brakes, HD shocks, HD front sway bar, 235/75/15 tires which got the 8.5" wide rally wheels. My father passed away a couple of years ago, but this truck will never leave the family. I learned to drive in it when I was about 12, my brother and I drove it thru high school in between various old car projects, and we have passed it around between the three of us for the last 20 years. The truck has 192k on the original drivetrain, though the clutch was changed once. We have abused that transmission in ways that shame me now but it still works. The truck got a terrible paint job a few years ago and needs the interior redone again, but it has never been wrecked. I have attached a picture below and will attach a picture of the interior / shifter area and the service parts decal tomorrow.
