1985 Chevrolet Silverado

Description

Boxy bulldog pickups like this 1985 Chevrolet Silverado combine cool vintage looks, no-nonsense toughness and 4x4 ability, all for an affordable price. So no matter if you need a truck for the trails or just want something unique for weekend projects, it's hard to beat this tough Chevy.

The Silverado was the premium trim of the C10 truck line, and it looks quite nice in white. Maybe it's the way the paintwork rivals the chrome front bumper, trim, and bedrails for shine, but it looks aggressive and clean all at once. There's even a nice blue pinstripe that runs down the sides and wraps around the rear for a little preview of the interior color. It's pretty obvious that this one has been primarily personal transportation. Its bodywork is clean, smooth, and straight, and so it stands out in a crowd. Well, actually it stands above the crowds with the lifted 4x4 drivetrain. Even if this pickup was babied all its like, it's still ready to earn its keep. The rubber mat in the bed and hitch on the step bumper means this classic Silverado is as ready for anything as you are.

As promised, the blue pinstripe on the outside coordinates nicely with the blue interior. On a pickup like this you can just imagine a crisp fall day where you open the side vent window as well as optional rear sliding glass, and then just let a small breeze go by as you run down a country road - yes, it is that comfortable. That's thanks to features like the nicely padded cloth bench seat, full gauge cluster, and upgraded AM/FM/CD stereo. It's all presented in an interior that still looks nearly factory fresh over three decades later.

The 305 cubic-inch V8 is legendary for being quite adaptable, but right now this powerplant appears charmingly original. It's backed by an easy-cruising 700R4 four-speed automatic overdrive transmission. The final part to this package is an updated dual exhaust that exits underneath the pickup to give it a nice stealth burble. If you were starting to think that this is a great truck for all day cruising at any speed, you'd be quite correct. This Silverado has comfortable features such as power steering and power brakes with discs up front. And when you run out of roads, Chevy's tough 4x4 drivertrain with two-speed transfer case and auto locking hubs can instantly get you out of any trouble.

Affordable, capable, and an attention-getter... A good truck isn't hard to find, but you can only take it home if you're first to grab this deal. Call today!!!
