Overview of 1979 Chevrolet K20 Silverado For Sale by Owner

The Chevy C/K series is the forerunner of today’s Silverado, and if you’ve read the title of this particular example on sale, you’ll glean that Silverado was once a trim level. A bit more research reveals that this 1979 Chevrolet K20 Silverado Long Bed Pickup is a third-generation truck, and the K in its name means that it packs four-wheel drive! It’s also got a massive 454ci V8 under the hood, satiated by dual Edelbrock 4-barrel carburetors! All that, a reupholstered interior and a relatively low 72,764 mile odometer reading make this a nice classic truck to purchase and drive. It’s currently up for sale in Attica, Michigan.

Exterior and Interior

Dressed in black, this 1979 Chevrolet K20 Silverado Long Bed Pickup features aftermarket wheels and custom “The Stroker” exterior graphics for some pizazz. It’s got the Silverado Trim Package and comes with the long bed configuration, which added more cargo space, albeit at the expense of an overall longer vehicle. Hey, you don’t get anything for nothing, after all. With its chrome bumpers and clean outlook, this is definitely a purposeful thing, as it rides on proper tires – Mud Track Steel Radials to be precise. The truck’s cargo bed is exposed to the elements but includes a black bedliner that seems to be in decent shape for the age of the vehicle. The reupholstered interior of this 1979 Chevrolet K20 Silverado Long Bed Pickup includes two tan brown seats bisected by a center console with a storage compartment and a duo of cup holders. The truck’s interior amenities include power windows, air conditioning and a JVC radio with a cassette tape player.

Engine

This 1979 Chevrolet K20 Silverado Long Bed Pickup comes with dual fuel tanks, controlled via a switch in the cabin. That’s necessary, because that monster 454ci V8 is fed by dual 4-barrel Edelbrock carburetors, and has a massive appetite as a result. It was factory rated at a reported 230hp and 360lb-ft. A 3-speed automatic transmission sends power to all four wheels. You’ve also got MSD ignition as a worthwhile upgrade for vehicles of this vintage.

Chevy’s C/K Series is what gave rise to the Silverado of today. Introduced in 1960, the C/K carried on for four generations until 2002, when the name was changed to Silverado and things continued as we know them to be. Across America and some other parts of the world, the C/K Series carved out a name for itself as being the definitive American pickup truck; tough, capable and no-nonsense. Today’s third-generation 1987 Chevrolet K20 is a little different, because it’s received a host of modifications and enhancements to make it truly unique, while preserving its exterior outlook to a great deal. With over 27,000 miles to its name, and sporting various chromed engine components, this truck is available in Powell, Ohio.
