A good truck can be the start of a long friendship. �€" 1979 GMC Pickup Truck magazine ad headline Hagerty characterized the attractive design of the 1979 GM pickups this way: Whether Chevrolet or GMC, the General's third-generation, 'square-body' trucks were a dramatic departure from the company's previous efforts. The third-gen models featured squared-off front and rear fascia, subtle body contours honed by wind-tunnel testing, a more accommodating and ergonomic interior, and even an available crew-cab body, a style decades ahead of its time. Offered here is a very well-maintained, one-family-owned-since-new, GMC CS15 Sierra Classic pickup in golden brown and cream-white over golden-brown. Since being delivered new in California, the truck has traveled 53,201 miles, or fewer than 1,500 miles per-year on average. Its excellent overall condition shows how owner pride, attention to regular servicing, and low mileage can result in an almost timeless vehicle. The exterior golden brown paint is complemented with cream-white on the roof and body-sides, and on the tailgate; it emphasizes the truck's horizontal styling lines. The tailgate also features brushed-metal trim. Paint shows good gloss overall with some light patina, especially on the hood. A Glasslite® bed topper (with sliding side windows and liftgate) for the cargo bed is painted to match the cream-white. There is no sign of body damage; the truck's front grille and tailgate show no damage. Chrome front bumper and rear step-bumper are in excellent condition. West-Coast-style mirrors are mounted. All factory emblems are in place and properly affixed. Cabin and topper glass as well as lighting lenses are clear and uncracked. The truck's cargo bed is in excellent condition while the underside of the fiberglass topper shows some discoloration. Turbine-style, 15-spoke alloy wheels are mounted with raised-white-letter Good Year Wrangler® Radial tires with the blackwalls facing out. Inside, golden-brown door and dashboard trim complement textured-fabric upholstery on the bench seat in the same hue. Golden-brown carpeting covers the cabin floors. Behind the black GMC-branded steering wheel and column-mounted shifter for the automatic transmission, the gauge cluster features a brushed-metal surround, matched by a trim piece on the front of the dash facing the passenger. Cracks are noted on the top of the dashboard. Heating and air-conditioning controls are located to the right of the instruments, with an aftermarket Concord® AM/FM/cassette audio unit mounted below in the factory-radio location. Under the hood, the 454 cubic-inch GMC V8 has been maintained in a clean and well-ordered engine bay. All components-including air conditioning-are correctly mounted and no significant modifications are evident. In the same way, viewed from below, the truck's chassis is complete and undamaged. Dual gas tanks were mounted at the factory, as was the towing package, power steering and power brakes. All build tags and VIN markings are present and unaltered. The truck has been recently serviced including replacement of the water pump, radiator hose, blower motor, and pinion shaft seal. While the more than 120 high-definition pho
