Under the hood is a dependable 350 cubic-inch V8 that runs smoothly and provides the classic V8 driving experience these trucks are known for.

Features & Equipment
Exterior
The body is in exceptionally nice condition for a 1978 pickup, and most importantly, it is rust-free. Finding a vintage square-body truck with a solid body is becoming increasingly difficult, making this GMC an excellent candidate for someone who wants a truck they can enjoy without starting with major rust repair.
Interior
The interior remains presentable but does show normal signs of age and use. The carpeting has some wear, the door panels show aging, and the dome-light cover could use replacement. These are primarily cosmetic items and give the next owner an opportunity to freshen the cabin while enjoying the truck.
Mechanical
The 350 V8 runs strong and smoothly, and the truck is reported to be free of leaks. With its combination of V8 power, air conditioning, cruise control, power windows, and power locks, this High Sierra was very well equipped for its era and remains a comfortable classic pickup to drive today.
The late-1970s GMC and Chevrolet square-body trucks have developed a strong following among collectors and enthusiasts, and solid examples are getting harder to find. This one offers the right combination of classic styling, a V8 drivetrain, desirable equipment, and a remarkably solid body.
