Sport Package Question

80SPORT is Alex here...
And I consider the Sports rare.  I would document and picture EVERYTHING as is.
I could consider yours a COPO 77 Sport.

I figured he was wandering around somewhere over here.

I am sure some square body fan down the road will come across one and start googling as I did so I wanted to make sure if he or she came across this page there's as much info as possible.

I have taken many photos and I know that my truck has been changed over the years, mostly engine compartment, but I figured it was good to have them just in case.  I pulled the bumper that came on it off as it was some big ugly aluminum thing that was added somewhere in its life, and swapped it with the one I had on my other 77 before I sold it.  I'm just hoping to have it back to original looking one day, as you said they seem to be quite rare, and I think it would be awesome to see one driving down the road in all of it's technocolor glory.

As I gain or get any additional info, it will be posted here.

I put my SPID up on the first page, let me see if I can get my other pictures re sized and on here. It's a big pain.

Here is a side view. I'll have to post them individually since they are so big

It has been a while, anyone have any new developments on the 77 sport trucks?  They re like unicorns and Sasquatch both mixed together but with less documentation.

Alex (80Sport) is who I was talking about here.

More info is on Jeff's site also:

I can't lend any more help on this topic, but I can say that I'm slightly upset that my truck isn't in its original condition. My SPID shows the 9J9 Deluxe Sport Equipment with Blue bucket seats in a black truck. 😒

Here's some pics of my dad's '77 C10 2wd Chevy Sport back in 1982.  That's me in the pics I was 3.  In 1996 it was my first truck.  The Third pic of the mustang with the truck in the backgrounds is how it looked in the early 90's.  Someone keyed the stripes up on his truck and you couldn't get all the stripes and they were super expensive so dad ended up just removing all the stripes with a heat gun.  He never cared about it like he used to after that.  He took care of it properly but it was just another old chevy after that.  He was pissed every time he saw that truck for at least 6 months because he bought it for the stripes and lightbar.  He doesn't like white cars and trucks but that one was special to him.

Fourth pic is of when I had it when I was 18 or so.

Last pic is in 2000 or so?  when I had dad help me try to reconstruct the stripes...  Colors are all wrong but hey I did it in paint back in the day.  He used to have a piece of the stripes he peeled off in case we needed it later but we can't find it any more.  Back then I was still new to internet and couldn't find anything on a checvy sport so we did our best to recreate it.


One thing he did tell me was it didn't come with the wheel arch trim or wheel center caps.  He said a few months after he bought it new he added the correct 77 yellow stripe wheel arch trim, wheel center caps and the lights under the bumper.

Mainly things different on those trucks are the Stripes, Lightbar, Upper Lights and Aux Lights Switch where dual tanks switch usually goes.  It looks just like a dual tank switch.   No Wheel arch trim and center caps.

Jeep guys used to stop me at gas stations and ask me where I bought the lightbar.  When I told em it was factory they got all mad like I was lying...  oh well.

I never saw the Aux Lights with dual tanks...  Bet thats especially rare.  My dad's 77 Sport had only the Aux Light Switch, but it was where the normal dual tank switch goes.
