HISTORY OF THIS RARE MUSCLE TRUCK
Beau James was designed in an effort to attract more upscale buyers to the pickup truck segment.
That’s rathercommon today with all the luxury$50,000 trucks, but it wasn’t all thatwidespread 40 years ago. Being a plushy pickup, Beau James rides on top of the line Classic Sierra trim stacked with amenities, and all high options such as full instrumentation, velour seats, air conditioning, cruise control and more.
You canrecognize it by its distinctive blue/silver paint job,special Beau James ornament on the hood, unique floor mats, wire-look hubcaps and Beau James chrome decal on the rear bed side.
Beau James rode on C15 three-quarter ton chassis with cushier half-ton suspension, and could have only been ordered with the strongest of power trainsavailable – that being 4-barrel 350ci V8 and 4-barrel 454ci V8. Only around 4,000 have been ordered that way.
