History: Planning for the GMT400 began in the early 1980s. After
design freeze, production development began in early 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.
Fleetside Single Cab, and Fleetside Extended Cab, were the first
chevy trucks to be available with this type of cab version, and the
1973 to 1987 C10s and C20s where only available with a single cab.
Fleetside Crew Cab, and Stepside Single Cab models, each in either
2WD (C) or 4WD (K) drive-lines were also available. All C/K models
would ride on independent front suspension. Three trim levels were
available: Cheyenne, Scottsdale, and Silverado. Engines were a 160
hp (119 kW) 4.3 L V6, a 175 hp (130 kW) 5.0 L V8, a 210 hp (157 kW)
5.7 L V8 and a 6.2 L diesel V8. A 230 hp (172 kW) 7.4 L V8 was
available in the 3/4-ton and one-ton trucks. Most of the powertrain
were a carryover from the 1987 R/V with fuel injection. To enhance
durability the trucks featured extensive use of galvanized steel
for corrosion resistance and a fully welded frame with a boxed
front section for strength and rigidity. During the development of
the GMT400 platform GM designers based their prototypes on the
compact GMT325 S-series (S10 and S15/Sonoma) - upon the official
release the GMT400 were the first GM vehicles to use an electronic
speedometer, and a serpentine accessory drive. Some consider the
GMT400 as a scaled up version of the S10/Sonoma with rounded off
contours - later incorporated into the second generation S-series.
