This 1978 Chevrolet K10 Silverado 4x4 nails it with its mixture of style and substance. It's an extra-sharp looking dark truck with updated V8 power, a well-done lifted suspension, four-on-the-floor, a comfy interior, and an overall attitude that's ready for work or play.

This Chevy impresses from the moment it comes into view. The paint looks black at first glance but it's really an extra-dark charcoal metallic. It's a modern professional application, and that means plenty of depth, too. So when the sunshine hits it, this radiates like a starry sky out in the country. And this upgraded finish also really knows how to show off the clean body lines of this well-respected and well-invested 4x4. Contrasting the paint are the right brightwork pieces including the mirror-like chrome bumpers, polished 15-inch alloys, and the front trim that shows off the desirable round headlight style from the early part of this generation. While this is a looker, the full package never shies away from work. After all, with a tall 4x4 stance, front two hooks, and liner paint in the bed, this one is ready for real pickup duty.

The tan interior is another tasteful contrast to the dark exterior paint. It looks clean, vintage, and stylish. The bench seat has the factory pattern, but you can tell the vinyl is a later investment. The door inserts, carpeting, and dash have a fresher look, too. This one is certainly made to be enjoyed with desirable features like an upgraded AM/FM stereo w/Bluetooth, working dome light, upgraded white-faced gauges, and sliding rear glass.

Just like the rest of this pickup, the engine bay is about showcasing Chevy's best. So the 350 cubic-inch V8 has a tidy style that includes the bold block paint, black valve covers, and matching air grabber. It's also upgraded for added power with an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, an Edelbrock intake, and headers feeding into the dual exhaust. The four-speed manual transmission keeps you in firm control over this powerhouse. It's a true go-anywhere pickup with a two-speed 4x4 transfer case, heavy-duty leaf springs, fresh Rough Country shocks, newer bushings, and a Rough Country steering stabilizer. And power steering, power brakes, and front discs make for a solid driving package.

This K10 Silverado has been given the right investment to make sure it combines style, function, and utility. That creates a classic that's an irresistible total package. Call today!!!
