For decades, the Silverado has been one of Chevrolet’s most popular nameplates. Nowadays, they come with a ton of technology like GM’s Super Cruise and could set you back up to $70,000 or maybe even more. These 3rd generation C/K Series Silverados, on the other hand, are of a very different category; they were built with simplicity and rugged performance in mind. Even though this generation first went into production in 1973, the Silverado trim was added as part of the changes that came in 1975. The next major changes came in 1977, with new larger-segment grilles, revised interiors and new options (like power shutters and power door locks). 1978 brought a fuel-filler door (rather than the exposed cap) and brushed aluminum dash trim on the Silverado (to replace the woodgrain trim).
At first glance, it’s easy to see why they were nicknamed the “square body” trucks. The design is very 1970s, very square and sharp edged. Ironically, GM called them the “rounded line” series, and contrary to what many may assume, aerodynamics were carefully considered in this design to optimize fuel economy. This example has a metal flake copper exterior which suits the design very well, and a brown interior with a front bench seat (a classic 70s combination). It reportedly has a functional stereo (which looks original, or at least period-correct). On the exterior, it has chrome rails around the bed and chrome + body-colored wheels. The paintwork on the front of the hood does seem to have flaked off in a few places but overall, it appears to be in good shape.
The seller states that the vehicle was restored in 2001 and has 67,000 miles on it (though it is unconfirmed if this is since new or since the restoration). The engine has been rebuilt with new gaskets and seals. Among the engine options at the time was a 350ci small block Chevy V8 making 160-175hp, and this vehicle has a 350ci V8 with a 4-speed manual transmission (though it must be noted that no claim has been made regarding whether the drivetrain has been replaced during its lifetime).

In 1960, Chevrolet’s C/K-Series took over from the Task Force line-up as the Bowtie’s pickup truck range.

It’s a tough, dependable and long-serving machine that has helped countless Americans run their farms, garages, and small businesses.

In 1960, Chevrolet debuted a truck series that would become their signature offering in the segment for over forty years. The Chevy C/K Series quickly gained a reputation as a tough, capable and dependable partner for those involved in agriculture, small business, and varied forms of industry.

Interestingly, Silverado was a trim level for the Chevy C/K Series, and that’s why you’ll find the words adorning the sides of this 1984 Chevrolet C10 Silverado that’s up for grabs. The vehicle has got a little over 116,000 miles on it, but boasts a rebuilt engine, and all maintenance is said to be up to date.

Fun fact; the CJ in Jeep CJ stands for Civilian Jeep! By 1944, Willys-Overland had started planning a civilian variant of the popular military Jeep that had revolutionized battlefields all across the theaters of World War II. They knew that the War was coming to an end, and so would their bread-and-butter product. So, by 1945, the CJ-2A was introduced and sold over 214,000 units in just four years. CJ-1 and CJ-2 were prototypes and thus not available to the public. The series continued for decades, with the CJ-7 coming in 1976. This particular 1978 Jeep CJ-7 Renegade is thus one of over 379,000 units built over a 11-year production run. Bearing 7,101 miles on the odometer, this vehicle resides in Anderson, South California, and is waiting for a new custodian.

The GMC Jimmy is the sister vehicle of the Chevrolet Blazer. Both vehicles are basically SUV variants of the Chevy C/K-series of pickup trucks, and offer a more family-friendly value proposition.

If you’d like to own one of these iconic vehicles, check out this 1975 GMC Jimmy High Sierra 4WD that’s for sale right now in Rancho Santa Margarita, California.
