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).

Let’s say you’re a classic car fan, but not the kind who obsesses over whether every single thing is meticulously original.

If we’ve described you in that little parable, we’ve got just the vehicle for you…and it’s a truck!

1978 was a very special year for Chevy Corvette buyers.
