Vehicle Description
This super-looking 1984 Chevrolet K10 four-wheel-drive square-body
pickup has been tastefully restored with many custom features. It's
powered by a modern LM7 V8 engine and 4L60E automatic transmission.
The frame-off restoration was done over a one-year timeframe by
Daniel Turcotte of Johnston, RI, and completed in early 2020. Since
completion it's been admired and driven roughly 500 miles on
special occasions. The original body was stripped to bare metal and
a custom cowl hood was added for a more aggressive appearance. The
straight body was refinished in its original color combination of
black and Silver. The colors are separated with dual red
pinstripes. The show-quality paint was recently detailed to a
glossy finish. Silverado badging was added to the front fenders. It
has a new front windshield and C.R. Laurence sliding rear window.
Everything on the exterior has been restored or replaced, including
the dual chrome mirrors, grille, front bumper, moldings, door
handles and bumpers. It's equipped with modern LED headlights and
sequential taillights. It rolls on the original restored 15-inch
Silver-finished wheels wrapped in Dick Cepex Fun Country
33x12.50x15 tires. The interior was restored in the original color
of black. It was wrapped with Dynamat insulation for soundproofing
prior to reinstalling everything. Some of the new trim includes the
headliner, dash, door panels, bench seat upholstery and carpeting.
Some interior features include a tilt steering column, 15.5-inch
Billet Specialties Tec 5 contrast-cut steering wheel, a black
aluminum shift handle, a Kenwood stereo with remote and custom
floor mats. The bed was Rhino-lined for durability and the floor is
covered with a rubber mat. The engine compartment is nicely
detailed throughout. The firewall, inner fenders and radiator
support were refinished in Satin Black. The heart of this K10 is a
LM7 5.3-liter Vortec 5300 engine that runs excellent. The engine
was outfitted with a custom black intake, 102mm throttle body, ICT
billet bracket and polished air-intake tube. The battery has a
power disconnect knob for storage. The engine is cooled by an
aluminum radiator with dual electric fans. The engine breathes
through stainless headers and a dual exhaust system with MagnaFlow
mufflers. The engine is coupled to a 4L60Eautomatic transmission
with a separate cooler. The undercarriage was also refinished in
Satin Black and is nicely detailed throughout. It's equipped with
power steering, Warn hub locks for the 4-wheel drive, a 4-inch
Rough Country lift kit, power brakes with front discs and a tow
hitch. A new set of 15-inch black steel wheels and Uniroyal Lared
235/75/15 tires are included to use with enclosed shipping, which
lowers the overall height. This vehicle has been completely
serviced and detailed, which is documented with an invoice that's
included. From the MS CLASSIC CARS Collection. CARFAX shows damage
