1982 Chevrolet K10 4×4 [upgraded engine] for sale

This 1982 Chevrolet K10 4×4 is a great way to get your hands on a short bed 4×4 classic that also has a ton of versatility to fit into your everyday life.

A short bed Silverado with a lifted stance really gives this truck an attractive and squared silhouette. The copper paint is a nice color for a 1980s machine, but when you take it out in the sunlight, there is a distinctive metallic glow that suggests an update later in life. Chrome bumpers, premium Silverado trim, and Rally wheel complete an attractive package. This all looks good, but nothing is ever going to feel too fancy that you won’t ever hesitate to put it to work. In fact, if you like to tow the toys, then you probably got excited checking out the pics. This has a proper tow hitch on the back and a trailer brake control in the cab. And yes, that’s a gooseneck ball under the flap in the bed. Not only can you haul more with this, but the dual fuel tanks means you also get to go farther, too.

Inside is a highly original-style presentation that includes a vinyl bench, door panels, and full carpeting in shades of tan that go well with the exterior copper. There is room for improvement here, and the value price on this 4×4 means it’ll leave room in your budget for any of the wide array of easy personal upgrades available to these popular Silverados. And what we really like is that this already comes with the right fundamentals. The steering wheel is on a tilt column, there’s an AM/FM/cassette stereo, and this is a factory air conditioning truck (it will need servicing to blow cold again.)

Under the hood is the 305 cubic V8. These small blocks are love upgrades. This one even currently has an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor and Edelbrock Performer intake to let the V8 inhale deeper. The two-speed 4×4 transfer case, lifted stance, and Wild Country MTX tires give you a true go-anywhere machine. Plus, the automatic transmission, power steering, power brakes, and front discs make this one easy to enjoy on the road, too.
