For Sale: 1971 Chevrolet K-10 in Lithia Springs, Georgia

This 1971 Chevrolet K10 4x4 has an instant attraction. There was a proper restoration within the last few years to make sure everything feels fresh, right down to the suspension components. And the small block has been properly built to deliver healthy power. But the two-tone style and beautifully vintage interior remind you that this clean and capable truck still loves being a true classic.

The two-tone red and white is a color theme that's as all-American as a Coca-Cola bottle. The restoration is only a few years old, so there's a glossy finish with a superior radiance that tells you the application is quite modern. Plus, the mirror-like chrome bumpers, bed rails, and rally wheels give this the kind of brightness we all love on any classic American. Plus, the Cheyenne level trim package means classic details like the wood veneer running the full length of the sides and on the tailgate insert. Everything from the straight body lines to good weather-stripping show there was a comprehensive investment around this truck. But as clean as it looks in the details, this one is still a useful pickup. The lifted suspension makes this a more versatile 4x4, and the long bed makes this ready to carry more. We bet you'll find this K10 too nice for most mud holes, but adding a trailer hitch or bedliner may make your weekends a bit more fun after you take this one to the car show.

The exterior red returns inside on the metal pieces of the door panels, dash, roof, etc. But now black is the main color. Just like the exterior, you have a classic look, but a far fresher feel thanks to a proper investment. The premium Cheyenne trim and attention to detail mean this has a terrific vintage look that includes the Western-style texture on the bench seat and door panels. And there are great details like the texture of the dual-spoke steering wheel and the Delco AM radio that's still there for a display. And because this classic likes to remain handy, there are even nice details, like the tach in the factory gauge package.

The engine bay has the tidy look of a proper investment. The smooth inner fenders and plenty of polished components mean you'll be proud to show it off. At the heart of this is Chevy's sturdy 350 cubic-inch V8. It has been upgraded with an Edelbrock trio that includes the air grabber, four-barrel carburetor, and intake. There's also a set of long tube headers that allow this to exhale with added power and rumble from the H-pipe dual exhaust. The Rough Country lift and BF Goodrich All-Terrain KO2 tires work with the two-speed 4x4 transfer case to make this quite capable. But what's really impressive is that the fresher suspension components work with the power steering, three-speed automatic transmission, power brakes, and front discs to make this feel like quite a solid machine on the streets.

This Chevy's VIN on the cab does decode to a C10 because the restoration meant assembling the right solid pieces for a well-presented pickup like this. But as you can see, it has the substance and the prowess where it has a true K10 attitude. So this is the classic 4x4 that will turn heads no matter if you're downtown or on a country road. Its investments give it an all-around appeal that you'll want to get your hands on right now. Call today!!!
