Classic Car Overview

The square body Chevy truck is one of the most iconic shapes in American automotive history. Built from 1973 through 1987, this generation was actually the first full-size truck designed using computers and wind tunnels, which is easy to forget given how simple and purposeful they look. The C10 nameplate itself was retired after 1987 when Chevrolet moved everything under the Silverado name, which means this 1985 example sits comfortably in the sweet spot of the generation. Finished in Maroon Metallic and taken down to the frame for a full restoration, this one has been done right.

Under the hood is the 350 V8 backed by a 3-speed automatic with power brakes and power steering. The Edelbrock valve covers and Edelbrock intake give the engine bay a clean, purposeful look that suits the trucks personality perfectly. This is not an over-the-top show build, but it a very clean example of these generations of trucks. It is a well-executed truck that runs strong and looks the way a classic Chevy should.

Inside, the grey leather bench seat is comfortable and well kept, set against black carpet and a simple, honest interior. Crank windows are exactly right for a truck like this. Bosch temp, volt, and oil pressure gauges have been added to keep an eye on what is happening under the hood. This is the kind of thoughtful touch that tells you the person who built this actually cares about how it runs. The cab is straightforward, clean, and easy to spend time in.

The square body C10 has quietly become one of the most desirable classic trucks on the market. Prices on clean, restored examples have been climbing steadily as more people recognize that good ones are getting harder to find. A frame-off restoration in a classic color with a proper 350 under the hood is exactly what the market is looking for, and this one checks every box.
