Vehicle Description
The "square body Chevy" is one of the best and most popular GM
truck platforms ever produced. Introduced as the replacement for
the also classic 1967-1972 generation, the square body had a lot to
live up to! Though consumers may have been initially suspicious,
the square body quickly proved itself a worthy replacement. Both
the Chevyrolet and GMC versions of these trucks are sought after
today both as a collector vehicle and a reliable workhorse. Those
that survived use as an industrial vehicle, like this 1987
Silverado long bed, are a rare example and certainly a hot
commodity these days! Perhaps most notably, 1987 was the end of the
square body pickup, as the GMT400 was introduced as a replacement
in 1988.
This is a bone stock, unmolested, un-restored 1987 Silverado square
body. Offered in the classic and eye-catching color combination of
red and white on red, this pickup has survived 32 years without
being abused, heavily modified, or otherwise altered from stock
configuration. Tasteful aftermarket upgrades include a fiberglass
tonneau cover and dual exhaust. Aside from those upgrades, this
truck is basically exactly how it rolled off the lot back in the
'80s! Even the paint and wheels are in well-preserved original
condition. Though you may find minor wear and scratches in the
paint finish, this can certainly be expected on an original vehicle
this old. The exterior is in overall great condition, and needs
nothing to be enjoyed as-is.
The interior, much like the rest of the truck, is almost all
original minus replacement of various wear items over the years. It
even has the original radio seated in an un-cut all original dash!
For being original, the interior is in very impressive condition
showing only minor wear on the seat. If you're looking for a time
machine back to the late 1980s, this just might be your ride!
Under the hood is believed to be the original 5.0 liter Chevrolet
V8. By 1987, these puppies were TBI rather than carbureted. When
dialed in appropriately, TBI systems are more reliable than
carburetors and help to make vehicles like this easy to drive on a
daily basis so should you choose. The engine runs great and feels
strong. Hooked up to a 700R4 automatic transmission, this truck
would be a great daily driver or around town errand runner.
This is the most "modern" factory square body built, with the
GMT400 phasing it out for 1988. Unmolested, un-restored examples
like this are getting harder and harder to find! This truck won't
last long finished in this dynamite color combo, so be sure to add
this to your collection.
