For Sale: 1987 Chevrolet K-10 in Morgantown, Pennsylvania

1987 Chevrolet K10 Silverado Short Bed 4x4 Pickup

"The 1987 model year, the final year of production, saw the series designators changed. The rear wheel drive C-series became the R-series, then the four wheel drive K-series were renamed the V-series. This was done to allow for concurrent production of its replacement early in 1987 of the all new C and K models. 1988 then saw the introduction of the fourth generation C/K, which would itself continue until 2002." Hagerty.com

For consignment, a 1987 Chevrolet K10 short bed 4x4 pickup with a title verified 82,857 actual miles. Despite the V VIN code designating 4x4, they are still referred to as K10s. This one has a six inch lift but otherwise presents in mostly original condition.

Exterior
Glistening Bright Red coats this truck like an offroad fire engine and this final year square body is kept angular with its boxy eggcrate grille, here fronted by a pair of rally lights between the bumper guards. The straight shoulder line is handsome in profile and the body leaves plenty of mud slinging space between the tires and wheel openings and that means there's also room for the suspension to travel when you jump the creek bed! The bumper out back is matched by chrome bed rails while an aluminum dress plate spans the tailgate between simple tail lights that are now classic. Other accessories include twin exhaust tips and step up under each door. In the back of the cab, a sliding window overlooks the rough lined bed that presents cleanly. 15-inch M/T wheels carry 37" LT rated tires. One small scuff is the only imperfection we could find on this big red stunner.

Interior
Black vinyl over formed plastic makes for attractive door panels with electric switches and a similar dress plate to the one on the tailgate. The black velour-like bench seat is in fantastic condition and fronts a clean and original configured steering wheel and dashboard where black faced gauges are rendered elegant by the simple addition by GM of chrome rings. Canted towards the driver on the right is the heater panel and updated Sony AM/FM/CD radio with AUX and USB. A cupholder brings the truck into the 21st century, suspended over the floor mounted range selector and clean, black carpet. The headliner is also black and in good condition.

Drivetrain
Under the hood is a decidedly less showy 350ci V8, with throttle body injection and a 700R4 4-speed automatic transmission that routes power to 10 bolt axle front and rear, both with 3.42 gears and the rear featuring Positraction. Power brakes, power steering, and the air conditioning boxes all get checked!

Undercarriage
A heavy duty B&M rear differential cover catches our eyes as we make our way under this clean belly of the beast, noting some surfacerust, especially on the exhaust and driveshaft. But clean and dry conditions prevail as that dual exhaust runs in tandem to FlowMaster mufflers on its way to a polished end. There are no catalytic converters on board. The suspension the 6 inch lift includes leaf springs front and rear and brakes are divided as power disc fronts and power drum rears.

Drive-Ability
We climb this big red mountain and set ourselves in the comfortable interior that is like stepping back in time, save for the addition of a modern radio and cupholders! The 350 comes to life without hesitation and we roll the knobbies onto the test loop where it provides good power and straight tracking. Now, we do note some belt squeal under the hood and the high beams and driver's power lock are not working but all other functions work as they should. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.

If Clifford was a truck, he'd be this one. It stands high, is colored by a fine coat of two stage red paint, and makes a pretty good growl when you give it some throttle. This big dog can likely traverse any terrain, trample through snow, and grip the side of a hill with pitbull-like tenacity. But it'll do just fine at car shows just the same!
