Details: Sometimes what you want is simpleand#44; cleanand#44; and to the point. This 1987 Chevrolet K10 4x4 pickup embodies that philosophy perfectlyand#44; offering an ultra-straight bodyand#44; nice blue metallic paintand#44; and a minimum of add-ons that clutter the design. With 350 V8 powerand#44; a bunch of optionsand#44; and a great lookand#44; its the ideal all-purpose hobby vehicle.

Clean is the right word for this Chevy. From the grille to the clean body lines and shiny Midnight Blue paint joband#44; this truck embodies the word. Nothing has been altered or modifiedand#44; not even a cowl induction hoodand#44; and the paint job is pretty well done and only a few months old. No longand#44; salty wintersand#44; no hard work on the job siteand#44; this truck has led a very good life and it shows everywhere you look. The paint shines so well youll think twice about pulling that 4-wheel-drive lever and heading into the dirtand#44; and theres plenty of chrome to really make it stand out. The color is from the 1999 Corvette color pallet and while its got a few signs of useand#44; it would really wake up with a professional cut and buff. The grille and bumpers are excellent originalsand#44; the factory stainless trim remains bright and shinyand#44; and it wears a heavy-duty rear step bumper that gives it a suitably butch look. The bed is still original and shows some wearand#44; but that also means you can use it as intended without worries.

GM was actually designing some awfully nice interiors during this eraand#44; including a wrap-around dashboard full of highly functional gauges. This one also got just about every option available in 1987and#44; including factory A/Cand#44; cruise controland#44; a tilt steering columnand#44; and power windows and locks. The blue upholstery isnt dramaticand#44; but it works well with the blue paint and its in great shapeand#44; which suggests that this truck has been well-maintained. The factory radio is long goneand#44; replaced at some point by a JVC AM/FM/CD unit that sounds great. New carpets give it a plush feeland#44; and theres a sliding rear window provides great ventilation for those days when you dont need the A/C.

The engine is a 350 cubic inch V8 without any of the usual tricksand#44; and you know how well those runand#44; right? Rebuilt about 1000 miles agoand#44; the 350 replaces a wheezy 305 and features throttle-body fuel injection and a new control system to go with it. The underhood area is orderly if not detailed for showand#44; although they did dress it up with Chevy Orange paint and finned valve covers. No questionable modifications to compromise reliability (or valueand#44; for that matter) and despite the trucks size and 4x4 capabilitiesand#44; the 350 does just fine moving it around. The engines backed by a 4-speed automatic overdrive transmission and a 2-speed transfer case that gives it legitimate off-road chops. The exhaust system features long-tube headers and a 3-inch exhaust system with Flowmaster mufflers for a great soundand#44; terminating in shiny stainless tips just behind the rear wheels. Those fat tires are big 265/75/15 Wild Country radials wrapped around stock Rally wheels in excellent condition.

Even though we seem to get quite a few of themand#44; cleanand#44; turn-key 4x4s like this are harder to find than youd thinkand#44; but this big Chevy K10 is ready to rock. Call today!
