1985 Chevrolet

Description

When you want a cool classic 4x4 pickup that has investments to look great, and it's still ready for work, it's time to step up to this 1985 Chevrolet K-10 Custom Deluxe.

This truck has the charm of originality mixed with the right amount of flair. For example, the factory-correct light blue paint has been re-sprayed, so you get a nice clear coat luster. It also nicely showcases the gentle curves and sharp lines that makes these Chevy trucks so desirable. That darker blue pinstripe really helps highlight how straight the sheet metal is. But more than just a great-looking classic, this one still knows how to get to work. The tall stance and 4x4 hubs on the Rally wheels are an instant sign of a go-anywhere Chevy. And the color-matched liner paint in the bed and full tow hitch are exactly what you want in a practical classic pickup.

If you like the way the light blue with darker blue accent looks on the outside, then you'll love the inside. This two-tone blue is an expert mix on the door panels, dash, and freshly re-covered bench seat. We love how the full gauge panel wraps around the driver almost like a sports car. Plus, with the AM/FM/cassette stereo and sliding rear window, this is the perfect pickup to crank up the tunes and let the wind whip through the cab.

Under the hood is what's believed to be (per the consignor) the original 305 cubic-inch V8. That's not hard to believe considering the terrific look of authenticity, right down to the correct jack still mounted on the inner fender wall. You can also tell by the presentation that this has received the right maintenance over the years. This feeling continues in the undercarriage phots where you'll be able to spot investments that include new shocks, ball joints, and front universal joints (call for the full list of recent investments.) The four-speed manual transmission has a low first great for great immediate torque. That combines with the 4x4's two-speed transfer case to give you true go-anywhere power. Plus, with the power steering, power brakes, and new tires, this is one is a fine choice for driving on the pavement, too.

Nicely coordinated, nicely invested, and all-around nicely presented – this is the classic truck that impresses with its value. Call now!
