Vehicle Description
1995 Chevrolet 1500 Pickup
Celebrating 100 years of Chevy truck history in 2018, the American
auto manufacturer has produced over 85 million trucks in the past
century. With two brand-new Centennial special edition trucks
released to mark the occasion, let's take a look at some old Chevy
pickup trucks to see how they have progressed over the years.
Co-founded by race car driver Louis Chevrolet and GM founder
William C. Durant in 1911, Chevrolet had its fair share of rocky
beginnings. While Louis Chevrolet left the company in 1913,
Chevrolet became part of General Motors in 1918, the same year
Chevy's first truck was released.
For consignment, this very clean 1995 version of the Chevrolet in
1500 trim with tons of new parts and some included extras. Not only
is this truck capable of hauling loads, but it's also capable of
hauling ass with the modified V6 that sounds much like its V8 big
brother, some Mark Dougan pinstriping and a killer stereo system.
Get your motor run-in, lookin' for adventure in whatever comes your
way...born to be wild!
Exterior
This full size model of 1995 is bathed in dark blue metallic, has
excellent straight galvanized steel panels, consistent gaps, and a
miles deep finish. All chrome has been blacked out, shaved off or
changed to body color including the dark blue trimmed blacked out
eggcrate grille with its shiny central bowtie and quad halogen
headlights on its flanks, along with a body matching steel bumper
below which is highlighted by a black plastic lower air dam. A
tinted bug shield is mounted at the front of the long steel hood
which is attached between the fenders and gives a rather
aerodynamic look to this hauler. Blacked out trim surrounds the
windows, which have new front and rear glass with the sides and
rear glass tinted. Bringing up the tail end we see a black vinyl
bed cover, which when rolled up gives access to the gray felt lined
bed. A pinstriped tailgate rests between the cathedral style tail
lights and just below is another body matching steel bumper.
Peeking out from under the lower rear bed sides are a pair of
chrome exhaust tips giving the rear end a bit more flair. 17"
highly polished American Racing Torque Thrust wheels wrapped in
like new Cooper 225/65R17 blackwall rubber adorn the 4 corners and
add to the muscle look of this truck.
Interior
A swing of the doors reveals an intricate use of gray molded vinyl
with some added speakers within a matching gray box area on the
bottoms, and many differing panels to make up just the doors. We
note the passenger's side panel has been removed but a pair of good
used panels are included with the truck. Inside is a newly
upholstered bench seat stretching from door to door and this has an
interplay of tuck and roll inserts and smooth outer bolsters along
with gray piping to cover the seat which is in excellent condition
showing little wear. In front is the original factory configured
gray molded vinyl dash with a charcoal instrument cluster using the
square and rectangle design of the mid 1980's. A tachometer and oil
pressure gauge occupy the factory cluster and added above the
heater controls and in the center of the dash we see a touch screen
AM/FM/Bluetooth stereo. Slightly faded black carpet is on the
floors and above is a charcoal black felted headliner.
Drivetrain
Under the hood in the well sorted engine bay we see the original
4.3 Liter V6. This mill is fed by EFI, has a ribbed Edelbrock high
flow air cleaner assembly and the fires from within are lit by MSD
ignition. Bolted to the back is a 700R4 4-speed automatic with a
10-bolt axle conventional rear axle putting the power to the
pavement.
Undercarriage
Very clean and surface rust on some usual suspects, however very
structurally sound. Headers feed down to a new exhaust system with
a Flowmaster muffler and dual tail pipes. and providing the ride is
an independent coil spring front suspension and rear leaf springs.
Power disc brakes are up front and power drums are in the rear, all
buttoned up and ready to haul.
Drive-Ability
She fired right up and was ready for a few ticks around the track
and she was proven to work well. More than adequate acceleration
and shifting, bias free panic stopping, and easy drive-ability. I
did notice the A/C blew cool but not cold and that the heater blend
door had a tendency to stick in different output positions.
Otherwise a very reliable and surprisingly peppy runner.
Whether it be your main mode of transportation, or a second truck
to show and go with, you are sure to have years of reliable service
left in this truck. No rust, good paint, and some muscle truck
styling cues certainly make this a nice well thought out package.
Go on, get to hauling.....ass!
