This big 1986 Chevrolet K10 4x4 has a lot going for it. Recent paint, a fresh overdrive transmission, and, well, who doesn't love a brute like this? With go-anywhere capabilities but the comfort and reliability of a daily driver, this might just be the ultimate pickup. The first thing you notice is the striking two-tone paint scheme. At once unique and timeless, the paint went on just a few months ago, but this truck was never a beater. The sheetmetal is straight and clean, and the Chevy's squared-off looks have aged very, very well. Look closely and you'll see the new paint is even better than factory original, with crisp break lines between the colors and subtle pinstripes to help mark the separation. All the factory trim was reinstalled, too, and with a billet grille, it has a custom look without needing a lot of dramatic modifications. Heck, they even kept the hood ornament! The bed is protected by fresh Line-X spray-in bed liner material, there's a fresh diamond-plate rear bumper, and a sliding rear window provides great ventilation on warm days. Tan fabric covers the stock bench seat, and the almost entirely original interior doesn't need a lot of flash to be functional. The lower half of the dash is painted to match the body, which is a nice touch, and upscale door panels, carpeted floors, and a bunch of comfort and convenience options make this as much luxury truck as commercial hauler. A sheet of brushed stainless frames the original gauges, with a Grant GT steering wheel atop the original tilt column to help guide it down the trail. It also sports factory A/C with an R134a refrigerant upgrade, plus an AM/FM/CD stereo down low in the original radio's location. New bowtie-logo floor mats provide some protection for the carpets, especially when you're out playing in the dirt, and a subtle tint on all the windows gives it a modern look and helps improve comfort inside. With a sweet-running 350 under the hood, there aren't many places this brute can't go. Freshly tuned, the engine bay looks like someone's been looking after it all its life, and if this truck was intended to get dirty, someone was certainly fastidious about cleaning it up afterwards. There are no radical modifications, so it runs happily on pump gas, idles well, pulls hard, and doesn't overheat during slow-speed crawling. There's plenty of torque to turn those big tires, and thanks to a newly installed 700R4 4-speed automatic overdrive transmission, it cruises quietly and comfortably and fuel mileage goes from abominable to adequate, which is about all you can expect in a big machine like this. A 4-inch Rough Country lift gives it its towering presence, there's a great-sounding Flowmaster dual exhaust system, and 3.55 gears in both axles. Workmanship is expertly done throughout, so there are no bugs in the driveline or hiccups in the suspension, and it drives like it should, on or off road. Mickey Thompson aluminum wheels wear giant 35x12.5-15 Toyo tires that look great, ride well, and claw through the dirt with ease. If you're a fan of off-roading, this is a finished truck ready to enjoy, and even if you just like the look, this one is incredibly civilized. Call today!
