Who's got an original silverado sport?

[DerekTheGreat]

Well, all sport was is just a trim package. You've got essentially what was the Formula, not the Trans Am.

Looks like my truck only yours is 2wd and doesn't have a dark blue stripe down the middle or the OEM alloys.

Correct, the Sport trim was just an appearance package, essentially a regular 2WD truck that was monochromatic.

The rims might be oem 88-91 square body 2WD Burb rims, saw those type of rims on a 95-up 2WD Tahoe last week, but it had the stock center caps, so that tells me they must've came on the square body era. They are nice rims nonetheless, can never go wrong with 8 hole rims.

Hello, new to the forum. I have an all original 1989 Sport Package (BYP code) 4x4. It also has the Z71 and G80 codes listed on the tag in the glove box. I would like to know the rarity of these trucks if anyone has some info. Wikipedia shows " only about 5400 were built in 1989. And only one of those is known on the road today." don't know if that's true or not. I would hate to think I'm daily driving the last one LOL.
Anyway

Very nice truck, the 4x4 version of the Sport is definitely more rare than the 2WD Sport package, or at least in my opinion. Wikipedia is incorrect, I saw an 89 black 4x4 Sport for sale in my area last year, it was rusty of course.

Thanks 98chevy2500SS. Some more info that i have found on the BYP code for the 4x4 is they have black fender flares,the front air dam didn't get the fog lights like the 2wd did,different front sway bar (can't rember the number) and black tow hooks not chrome. The GM Heritage website has all of the RPO codes listed that were available for each year of these trucks. Good way to loose a couple hours.

Another thing that was neat about the 4x4 version, is that they didn't come with the body moldings, unlike its 2WD brother.

89 Sport
You own a very rare first year 1989 Chevy Sport 4x4.
Only 178 were built during 1/2 year initial production in 1989.
These truck were only built in Black, Red and White, white being the rarest color.
Go to my website www.purestockauto.com and click on partial restorations tab and you will see my 1992 Chevy Sport 4x4 final year for these rare trucks plus more info.

89 Sport holy crap that’s cool! Time warp. Throw a black single hoop roll bar with single kicker and slightly oversized tires on it and that and a couple year old IROC with T tops sitting new on a lot somewhere would have been my first 2 purchases if I could have won the lottery in 1989 at 20 years old! Awesome truck!!!

I would definitely stop DD the sport 4x4 if at all possible. Should the unthinkable happen the insurance company wont give you crap for it and its not replaceable.

 

[SouthernYankee]

Wow I love that! I really like how the sport trim offered color matched bumpers!

OP do you recall what clear corners you have? I hate the amber.
