1987 Chevrolet Silverado

Description

This 1987 Chevrolet Silverado is a 4x4 that's going incognito. Most people will just see a cool vintage pickup, but if you can pick up on the subtle hints of big power, you'll begin to see the fill picture on this 600+ hp Chevy.

Bright red paint and plenty of chrome trim perfectly represents this top-of-the-line Silverado model. This truck is nothing but straight crease lines, and horizontal brightwork, so it would be impossible to hide any imperfections in the body. This stellar presentation is the product of a full restoration, which even included new brightwork. So the beautiful chrome bumpers match nicely with the upscale Silverado wraparound trim. The bed looks just as straight as the rest of the body, but the raised stance and tow hitch remind you that the truck in no a trailer queen (it can tow them!) And there's much more here than just a terrific restoration. Upgrades like the cowl hood and chrome Pro Comp Extreme wheels hint at the beast that lies within.

Just like the exterior, the inside has been restored to appear quite original with some fun upgrades. It starts with the cloth bench that looks stock and pristine. It's joined by carpets, door panels, and dash pad that are all in great condition. A truck purchased for work usually comes with bare bones equipment, so this Silverado's long list of options points at a more comfortable life. This includes power windows, power locks, cruise control, and a knob-style AM/FM stereo that has an aux input for modern music players. You'll probably spend most days enjoying opening the side vent glass and the sliding rear window to let the breeze flow through the cabin. This easy cruising attitude is even heightened further thanks to the extended range of the dual fuel tanks. But don't let these creature comforts fool you. The moment you sit behind the factory wheel and spot the AutoMeter Sport-Comp tach, you know there is something wicked under the hood even before you turn the key.

The best upgrade on this Silverado lives in the engine bay. It's a massive 462 cubic-inch V8. The bare metals and alloys provide a presentation that conveys both style and fortified power. In fact, this one has been upgraded with go-fast goodies like a Holley four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock 464-R Victor Jr. intake, and Hooker long tube headers that feed the rumbling dual exhaust. The full package is rated at 600+ horsepower, and we'll even show you the dyno sheet to prove it. Backing up this big power V8 are reliable components like fresh hoses, braided fuel line, and an electric fan. The stout three-speed automatic transmission can handle all of this power, and it's easy operation is another reminder that this pickup is truly up for anything. Features like the power steering and front disc brakes are perfect for a daily driver, but when it comes time to have a little fun, the 4x4 drivetrain, locking front hubs, and Nitto Trail Grappler M/T tires will allow this Silverado to go just about anywhere it wants.

Complete with maintenance records and the owner's manual, this is the truck that works hard and plays hard. It gets a lot more attention than a new 4x4, is loaded with options, and brings serious power to the streets & trail. A complete package like this will be going fast. Call today!!!
