Vehicle Detail
1979 Chevy K-10 Pickup Truck with Automatic V8 400 cu in (6.6L) 4x4 Short Bed and Factory Lift. Tires have less than 2,000 miles. Runs great, no issues starting. Engine needs to be revved for about 20 seconds on a cold start. Has manual wheel locks on front wheels to allow 4x2 or 4x4 operation. Battery replaced in 2013. Has a plug for an oil pan heater, have never used. Truck's original owner was from Wisconsin. This is an old truck and thus has some issues which I am doing my best to disclose below: Mileage- odometer says 58k but does not track hundreds of thousands. I do not know exact mileage but my guess is 258k.Speedometer- speedo works but appears to be over estimating speed (55mph is really 45mph)Body Rot- quite a bit of body rot, see pictures for details1 of the 2 gas tanks inoperable- one of the 2 gas tanks has a leak, i have never used it. The other works fine and holds plenty of fuel. I cannot speak to whether the gas tank switch works as I have only used one tank.Driver side interior door handle broken- I roll down window and open door from exterior.Passenger side door latch broken- passenger side door latch stopped catching, wont remain closed. I have tow strapped the door shut and had to remove the interior door panel to do so. Panel and screws are included with car.Passenger side window handle broken- broke the window handle taking the interior panel off, simple replacementNo car stereoFan switch not mounted to dash- fan high low switch is wired but has popped out of its spot on the dashInterior in rough shape- dash cracking, upholstery tears (see pics)Battery strap broken-strapped with a tow strap to keep it in place (works fine) The truck runs great. I use it to haul stuff from the home improvement store and have towed a boat with it. Would make a great plow truck or farm truck. Price reflects the condition it is in.
