Vehicle Description
During its more than 30 years of faithful service, this 1984 GMC
Sierra Classic 1500 has plied its trade for only one local owner
and has never had occasion to stray far from home onto salted roads
that might otherwise mar its sturdy foundation. A recent exterior
freshening leaves it looking sharp, so this numbers-matching
workhorse is sure to draw admiring glances, whether it pulls up to
a work site or bears its burden during weekend pursuits.
This sturdy pickup is still clad in its original black and silver
shade that looks particularly sharp all these years later, thanks
to a well-applied refresher just a few years back. With its
tendency to show every imperfection, black paint is the saboteur of
many a paint job, but there's nothing to diminish your enthusiasm
here. The silver running the lengths of its sides is topped by
pinstripe decals and those are looking good as well. The bug guard
sitting upfront and straight, full-size bed in back convey the
notion that this is a very capable-looking truck that's very much
ready for action as soon as you get it home. Very clean, level
chrome bumpers sit in place in both front and back and the cab is
surrounded by blemish-free tinted windows sporting clean rubber and
trim. In back, the dual chrome exhaust tips extend just the right
amount from below the tailgate.
The gray cloth interior is another strong feature of this Sierra.
It retains its factory look, down to the plush, padded bench seat
that features a tuck and roll look that shows no serious signs of
wear. Take a deep breath while inside and you'll have all the
confirmation you need that this truck performed its duties for a
non-smoker - unlike so many vehicles from this era, it even has a
fresh smell inside. Just beyond the factory steering wheel, the
dash area also presents well, with its chrome-colored instrument
cluster housing an assortment of still easily readable gauges, a
retro-style AM/FM radio at the center and a straight pad sitting on
top, protected from the elements by a carpet dash pad. The air
conditioning system was converted to modern refrigerant a few years
back and that feature is also in top form to keep you and your
passengers comfortable while on the road. The GMC floormats sitting
below are a nice touch that adds a little contrast to the interior
while protecting the carpet below. The roomy bed area in back is
ably protected by a snap-on cover that's in great condition.
Underneath the hood, the original 305 cubic inch V8 maintains its
place in an engine bay that's unusually clean for any vehicle of
this age - as an indication of just how clean, the original option
sticker is still attached in its original position and is readable.
This truck has been well-cared for by its only owner and that's
yielded definite benefits for the small block powerplant - it still
runs strong and sounds great as it breathes into its stock headers
leading to the glasspack mufflers in back. New shocks were recently
installed at all four corners, as well as a new gas tank in back.
Power steering provides easy navigation, while power front disc
brakes offer low-effort, dependable stops for this venerable truck
as it performs on its set of 15" stock GMC wheels outfitted with
Cooper Cobra Radial G/T tires that have quite a bit of life left in
them, including the full-size spare.
