1986 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 4X4

Description

When you want to look distinctively original without giving up creature comforts, its time for this 1987 Chevrolet Silverado. It combines classic truck styling with 4x4 capability, all wrapped up in a very nicely done package.

The shining red paint makes this top-of-the-line Silverado model really stand apart. The premium appearance is capped off by the Rally wheels. Yes, that's right. The feature you look for on the classic Chevy muscle cars were also factory options on trucks, even in 4x4 trim. This truck is nothing but straight lines, smooth panels, and horizontal trim, so it would be impossible to hide any imperfections in the body. Beautiful chrome bumpers, matching bed rails, and upscale Silverado trim make this look far more substantial than its price tag would suggest. Just one glance in the bed will prove that this truck has had a very easy life, as there are barely any marks that would indicate it's ever done any serious hauling.

Inside is a very original-style interior that starts with a comfortable gray cloth bench seat. Carpets, door panels, and the dash pad all match in color and nice preservation. 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. It includes cruise control, the original AM/FM stereo, provisions for air conditioning, and sliding rear window. It's easy to imaging eating away the miles from the driver's seat with the original steering wheel and full set of gauges laid out in front of you.

This pickup originally came with Chevy's 305 cubic-inch V8, which is fine motor but we all know there are some hotter examples out there. That's why this one was upgraded to a more desireable 350 small-block and a four-barrel carburetor. This looks pretty stock in the engine bay, but the roar of the glasspack style dual exhaust makes this one a much more burly exotic. The upgraded motor is also really helpful for more power when it's time for 4x4 duty. This truck has a two-speed transfer case to choose the right kind of off road work. And you don't even have to leave the pickup to engage the four-wheel drive thanks to auto locking hubs. This Silverado is also good for the long trips with power steering, power brakes (discs up front), and a 700R4 four-speed automatic transmission that includes overdrive for when you're on the highway.

These Chevy trucks are gaining in popularity by the day, so you may never see a versatile and handsome classic 4x4 this affordable again. Call now!!
