Vehicle Description
Is it difficult to appear tough, stylish, custom-built, quick, and
vintage all in one pickup? The answer would usually be yes, but
this 1987 Chevrolet Silverado does all that with ease.
We sell plenty of tough Silverados at Streetside (and you can still
find a few right now,) but this one goes in a bit of a different
direction. The moment you lay eyes on the super-slick bright red
paint applied to the crisp sheetmetal, you know this one was built
to really show off. The power bulge cowl hood, billet grille,
mirror-like front bumper, and custom rolled rear pan are all part
of this showman's package. And everyone loves the sight of those
20-inch Riddler wheels on a lowered suspension. But this very
custom truck has a secret. It might look show ready for Sunday, but
the spray in liner paint in the bed means you can still use the
practical side of this pickup for hardware store runs on
Saturday.
The red of the exterior is joined with black to make a custom
two-tone interior. The bench seat with bow tie stitching offers
individual insets for long haul comfort. The color scheme continues
on the door panels, headliner, carpeting, and dash for a uniform
appearance that looks like a huge investment all on its own. All
the right factory elements are in place such as the steering wheel,
heat/defrost, and AM/FM stereo. But as you look at the white-faced
speedometer and spot the trio of auxiliary gauges, you get the
feeling there's something more going on under the hood.
Chevy's trusty 350 cubic-inch small-block V8 is ready to impress
with the shiny air cleaner, Chevrolet performance valve covers, and
red wiring all radiating from the black engine bay. But more than
just for show, this motor has been upgraded for performance, too.
It includes Holley four-barrel carburetor, Weiand intake, and
headers that feed the Flowmaster dual exhaust - giving a mean
rumble for the V8's finishing touch. Handling this enhanced power
is no problem for GM's stout TH400 three-speed transmission, but
there's more to this pickup's story. The automatic transmission is
not only good for reliability, but it's also a great addition to
features like power steering and front disc brakes to offer
everyday drive-ability.
Here's a great-looking custom Silverado at an exceptionally
