Vehicle Description
This ultra-clean 1987 Chevrolet K10 4x4 short bed pickup offers a
lot of performance and handsome good looks for not a lot of cash.
Pickup trucks are the Next Big Thing in the collector automobile
world, and the ones that you can use and enjoy every day are at the
very top of the heap.
With a recent repaint in high-gloss black, this truck looks
absolutely fantastic in person. The cool thing about the color is
that it both looks appropriate on the truck's 1980s sheetmetal, as
well as contemporary, since black never really goes out of style.
Of course, adding things like the shiny bed rails add a truck
functionality, and you can tell even in photos that the workmanship
is first-rate. It appears that this has always been a clean,
southern truck, and with black paint, there's really no place for
shoddy workmanship to hide. It was treated to a quality repaint a
few years ago and is just a quick buff away from being
jaw-dropping, so you know this isn't some beater. Heck, even the
nicely preserved bed looks fresh out of the stamping press with no
signs of forced labor in its past, although it now has a spray-in
bedliner and those stainless bed rails to keep it in top shape. The
chrome and brightwork are in excellent shape, including the bumpers
and oversized side mirrors, and fresh stainless fender moldings
were installed once the paint was dry. They even kept the original
hood ornament!
The all-black interior is the ideal complement to the bodywork, and
offers a fresh cloth seat cover on the original bench seat, so it's
comfortable no matter what time of year it might be. OEM-style
components like the door panels and dash pad are in excellent
condition with minimal wear and the factory gauges are in excellent
condition with bright pointers and markings. Fresh carpets were
fitted and the shifter on the floor manages the 2-speed transfer
case for the 4-wheel-drive system. In the center of the dash
there's an AM/FM/CD stereo that feeds speakers throughout the cab
so it sounds great. It's also loaded with options, including A/C, a
tilt steering column, power windows and locks, cruise control, and
a sliding rear window for those days when you just don't need A/C.
Just get in and go have fun!
Under the hood, a 350 cubic inch V8 and someone obviously took
their time dressing it up. 1987 featured throttle-body fuel
injection, a first for Chevy pickups, so it starts and runs
smoothly without any hassles. No modifications, no "upgrades," just
a stock look that makes it feel like 1987 all over again. The motor
makes wonderful sounds thanks to a dual exhaust system that gives
it a great V8 soundtrack without being annoying on the highway. The
ultra-clean chassis is neatly finished with no signs of abuse or
even aggressive off-roading, but it's obviously ready to rock.
Everything under the truck is either new, rebuilt, or a nice
original piece, suggesting that this truck has always been
someone's toy and not a daily driver. Factory Rally-style wheels
are fitted with big 32x12.50-15 BFGoodrich all-terrain radials that
fill the fenders and give it an awesome stance.
This is one of those trucks that needs nothing to hit the trails,
and looks great even on pavement. There's a ton of cash invested
here, and it makes a lot of sense to take advantage of someone
else's investment. Call today!
