Featured here is an incredible Chevrolet Square-Body Pick-up. This truck is an extremely clean low mileage truck that has had some tasteful upgrades but otherwise is a very original truck.
This short-box truck was repainted in the original dark blue hue over clean sheet factory sheet metal, which as you can see from the underbody required little if any rust repair. All the original body side moldings are present on this truck and the originality of the exterior is like a time capsule from the GM Truck Plant in St. Louis Missouri, where this truck was assembled. The original bumpers are in place and the chrome and related stainless trim still shine with a deep brilliance. A rare detail that sets this truck off is the factory chrome handrails on the bed which feature the factory faux wood inserts. It is clear the truck bed has seen little if any utility use based on the absence of any dents or deep scratches characteristic of a truck that has been worked and used as intended. The noticeable exterior modifications are the lowered stance complemented with a set of 20"" polished American Racing wheels wrapped with a set of low-profile speed-rated tires.
Inside the cab is well preserved and the interior presents as strikingly original. The carpet is clean with only some light wear and color fade and is protected by a set of matching factory GM logo rubber floor mats. The seat upholstery is the factory cloth velour which is pure 1980's GM. The dash is clean and free of any cracks or sun damage. Options include tilt steering, power windows and locks, factory instrumentation, air conditioning, and auxiliary fuel tanks. This truck also features the factory original 4-channel Delco Stereo with digital AM/FM tuner with seek and scan function, cassette player with Dolby noise reduction, and separate bass and treble controls, which was top-of-the-line for GM products in the 1980s. Inside the glovebox are the original owner's manuals and warranty booklets as well as the GM SPO option decal.
Under the hood sits a 305cid V8 with factory throttle body fuel injection. The engine compartment continues the well-preserved theme of this truck and is very clean with the factory decals, and assembly markings still present with even the correct part numbers still present on the cooling hoses. Power is transferred back to the differential through a GM 700R4 4-speed automatic transmission.
Underneath the frame, cab and bed floorboards are clean and rust-free, supporting this truck has not seen much if any inclement weather. The suspension has been lowered 4"" upfront with dropped spindles and springs and 6"" out back with lowering blocks and matching gas shocks on all four corners. Braking is greatly enhanced with a CPP power disc brake kit featuring drilled and slotted rotors and high-performance calipers on all four corners. The exhaust rumbles nicely through a custom bent dual exhaust with X-pipe and stainless steel MagnaFlow performance mufflers.
This truck as you can see from the photos is simply amazing and would make a great summer cruiser to drive to work on nice days or to show and shines, whatever the case this truck will turn heads wherever it goes. Please call if interested or e-mail with specific questions. Thanks for looking.
