For Sale: 1980 Chevrolet C10 in Concord, North Carolina

This 1980 Chevrolet C10 Cheyenne has the good shine of nice investments. But you can also tell that this V8-powered pickup appreciates its history. And that makes for the right kind of classic that's great to drive.

The 1980 C10 is a great one to showcase. It was the debut of the rectangle headlamps, and the 33-slot ice cube tray grille was exclusive for this year. So it already puts a distinctive face forward even before you look at the shining chrome bumper or upgraded cowl hood. The two-tone gray is a more modern respray with a great metallic element in the darker of the two hues. Plus, the full-length trim is a great classic piece that not only provides a true dividing line for the two-tone, but it also shows off the quality lines of the sheet metal. Polished wheels and bright dual exhaust tips complete quite a striking total package. Overall, it's a great-looking classic with solid investments in style. But what we also like is that it never loses that true pickup usability. That means never making anything too fancy to use/drive and liner paint in the bed that's great for weekend chores.

The interior keeps a very stock style, right down to the factory heater controls and Delco AM/FM/cassette stereo. Plus, the sliding rear window letting breezes flow through the cab is a true vintage truck hallmark. You'll see well-integrated upgrades, like the brighter LED dome light and the bench seat now finished in a comfortable cloth. The carpeting and headliner also show signs of a solid investment, and the door panels and dash are quite clean and complete. So it's a very inviting atmosphere.

Under the hood is an exceptionally clean 305 cubic-inch V8. These hardy small blocks love upgrades, but we also especially like the stock appearance here. The bright blue block and valve covers around the ultra-tidy presentation tell you there were investments to get this looking like a fresh time capsule. The motor warms up to be a solid runner that shifts smoothly with the three-speed automatic transmission. Even the clean undercarriage contributes to the confident driver feeling. And you also have power steering, power brakes, front discs, and wide Cooper Cobra tires to keep this classic pickup a great cruiser.

This C10 has the distinction, versatility, shine, and an all-around attractive style. That's why it's irresistible, especially at this affordable price. Call now!
