1979 Chevrolet C/K 10 Series

1979 Chevrolet K-10 Long Bed Pickup  While relatively straight lined and boxy in appearance, (leading to their Square-body nickname from the public), the Rounded Line trucks were the first generation of the C/K to be designed with the use of computers and wind tunnels, optimizing the exterior shape for lower drag and improved fuel economy.  The chassis was an all-new design, (with all trucks receiving a leaf-spring rear suspension), K-Series trucks moved to all-wheel drive, (shift-on-the-fly 4x4 was introduced for 1981). For consignment, a square body GM labeled rounded design pickup truck with a K designation.  This means it's 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 won't 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-s
