1979 Chevrolet C/K Truck

1979 Chevrolet K-10 Long Bed Pickup For consignment, a square body GM labeled rounded design pickup truck with a K designation. This means its a 4x4, and our model shown here has been treated to a once over to ensure there are no leaks and has new lock out hubs to just name a few of its attributes. It has nice paint and a powerful 350ci V8 along with 88,142 non verifiable miles on the Race Pack digital odometer. Classic Trucks are hot right now and we see a trend for owners to use them as a promotional piece for their businesses. A little promotion wont hurt will it? Also it has the ability to get a little mud on the tires. NOTE: Due to modifications of the emissions control devices installed by the manufacturer, please check your local, state, and federal laws to determine if this vehicle is applicable for use on public highways in your area. Exterior Square and rectangle design abound right upfront with the chrome trimmed crate grille flanked by single round headlights within square bezels and turn signals just below in square and rectangle form. A big bumper protects the front and a nice bowtie badge sits in the center. All steel with well minded gaps is bathed in midnight blue which shows well with a few flaws and imperfections. Leading back to the cab is a cowl induction hood dressed with some flourish pin striping and there we meet up with two doors, a shiny large mirror hanging from either side and all correct badging. Window trimmings are blackened and stainless highlights the drip rails on the sides. At the back of the cab a sliding rear window has been optioned in for the rear glass. The bed has a spray in textured liner which shows in good condition, having limited usage. Some custom light blue striping runs down the mid body beltline of this hauler and continues onto the solid tailgate with an embossed light blue Chevrolet, a custom airbrushed rendition of the truck and shiny bumper which has the tail lights floating off of each side of the box. Very shiny 15-inch deep dish multi-spoke wheels are on all 4 corners, and wrapped with 35x12.50R15LT all weather BF Goodrich All Terrain radials with like new deep tread. Interior The original looking panels are covering the doors and now see blue vinyl and plastic covering them along with a small storage pouch, framed by dark blue painted metal trimming. There is some color loss and flaking revealing a lighter blue shade in areas of the panels. Slightly stained light blue cloth with darker blue piping and inserts covers the bench that stretches door to door. The dash is pure 1979 GM with square and rectangle design that wraps around the rally style 3 spoke steering wheel, but now contains a rectangular Race Pack instrument cluster display along with factory knobs, pulls, and climate control sliders dressing things as they should. An aftermarket AM/FM/CD radio has been installed and belts out the tunes. A clean light blue dash pad hovers above all this goodness and down on the floor we note new deep pile blue carpeting. In the center of the hump are black bezel and rubber accordion boot wrapping around the 4WD and transmission shifter. Above is all dark blue steel for the headliner. Drivetrain Under the hood in the engine bay this high steppin hauler is graced with a resealed 350ci V8. Finished in a patinaed coating of Chevrolet orange it now has a Holley single 4-barrel carburetor feeding it, and on back is a 4-speed manual transmission. This pushes power rearward to a 12 bolt rear and with the pull of a lever power also goes to the front 10 bolt axle. We note headers feed down to a new dual exhaust system, sans catalytic converters, with FlowMaster mufflers for the mighty exhale. Fab! Undercarriage Taking a peek down below, the underside is just as nice as the topside. All rust free black frame supports fairly solid floors with some amateur repairs noted in a few areas. For the suspension, its leaf springs for the front and rear and like new power disc brakes are up front, and power drums for the rear. Drive-Ability I slipped inside and was amazed at the attention to detail, especially the Race Pack dash. She fired right up and to the test track we drove where this truck performed nicely and the truck exhibited nice abundant and seemingly never ending acceleration, and even a smooth comfortable cruise with plenty of interior room. Braking was adequate and handling was on par for trucks of the era. 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. From head to toe, top and bottom, every inch looks good for this 79 K-10 4x4 pickup. Get in and turn the key and youll be the envy of your construction crew showing up to the site in this beauty. Its that nice, you could even take the wife out to an expensive dinner in it to celebrate your purchase of said truck, (although make sure there is a nice gift on the seat for her when she gets in, because after all you bought the truck...).
