Vehicle Description
It's 1988, NASA resumed the Space Shuttle program during September
of 1988, and this low mileage Chevrolet 2500 rolls off the assembly
line. Now after 29 years she only has 54,303 miles on her. The C/K
was Chevrolet and GMC's full -size pickup truck line from 1960
until 2000 in the United States, from 1965 to 1999 in Canada, from
1964 to 2001 in Brazil, and from 1975 to 1982 in Chile. The first
Chevrolet pickup truck was introduced in 1924, though in-house
designs did not appear until 1930. "C" indicated two-wheel drive
and "K" indicated four-wheel drive. The aging C/K light-duty pickup
truck was replaced with the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra
names in 1999 in the United States and Canada, and 2001 in Brazil;
the Chevrolet Silverado HD and GMC Sierra HD heavy-duty pickup
trucks followed. Until this time, the names Silverado and Sierra
were used to identify the trim level of the C/K trucks. Development
of these trucks began around 1984 and were introduced in April 1987
as 1988 models (known as the GMT400 platform, and their nickname:
OBS (Old Body Style) Chevy or GMC). There were eight different
versions of the C/K line for 1988. A drastic difference between the
third-generation and fourth-generation GM trucks was the
suspension; the fourth-generation GM trucks used all independent
front suspensions (IFS) To view the car in greater detail,
