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).

Here we have one of the catalysts responsible for the exponential growth of pickup trucks in America: the 1966 Chevrolet C10. Manufactured by General Motors, the Chevrolet C/K line of trucks lived from 1960 until 2002, encompassing a wide range of vehicles. Through its entire production, the Chevy C/K model line competed directly against the Ford F-Series and the Dodge D series. Now in its retirement, this Chevrolet C10 easily surpasses its competitors in terms of classic car glamour. Rebuilt into a custom mean looking machine in all black, this 383 ci V8-powered truck has only clocked a mere 6,000 miles on the odometer. With an all new interior, here is your chance to own a fully-built 1966 Chevrolet C10 for sale in Waterford, Michigan.
The Chevy C/K Series ran between 1960 and 2002 over four generations before morphing into today’s Silverado. Along the way, these trucks have helped countless hard-working Americans ply their trades across the country. From farmers to construction workers to small business owners, a Chevy C/K Series is a dependable partner. Take this third-generation 1983 Chevrolet C10 for instance. It’s received a makeover, and some modern creature comforts. No doubt it lived a productive life before. Now, it’s time for an enthusiast to take it over and give it some relaxation – but it can still rumble and roar when required.
The second-generation Chevrolet Corvette (C2) is where the legendary Corvette inherited its sharp lines and looks that are still used to this day. This new design over the first-generation Corvette did not only present itself with a spectacular view but also newfound handling prowess. The new lighter body meant this convertible found more acceleration than its predecessor, even though the power remained the same and the new suspension significantly improved handling. All the 1963 cars came out with 372 ci engines, making 250 horsepower as standard, with optional variants like this particular restored model we have for you today, which can produce a whopping 340 horsepower. All this excitement for the second-generation Corvette resulted in an increase of 50% in units built compared to the then-record-setting 1962 version. This made the C2 an automotive icon of the past and present. We’re told that this 1963 convertible American beauty, for sale in Rosamond, California, has only done less than 1000 miles on the odometer after restoration. The current owner also reports that the numbers are matching for the motor and transmission, however documentation cannot be provided.
Occasionally, a manufacturer comes along that wows the car industry with their truly remarkable creations, leaving even the most critical journalists stunned. This 2022 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 3LZ Convertible, which has just under 1,600 miles on the odometer, is a car that would knock the socks off all of its competitors. The Corvette name has been around since 1953, and in that over 70-year production run, it has always fulfilled its purpose through GM’s tried and tested formula – Look good, go fast, and make a good noise. Nice to see that not much has changed.
The Chevrolet Impala has played the role of the Bowtie’s flagship full-size car for years. Produced over ten generations, the Impala was first introduced in 1957. Named after the eponymous African antelope, the first generation was strictly a two-door affair. Buyers could choose a coupe or convertible. If you’d like to own a classic Impala but with a bit more pep up and go, this 1958 Chevrolet Impala is a worthy contender. The car comes with an upgraded engine, but remains otherwise stock as far as possible. That makes it a lovely classic car to own and drive, but something to surprise other classics with when the mood strikes.
We’ve seen a lot of cool vintage Ford Broncos brought back to glory with modern amenities. While many people restore their own Broncos, there are numerous companies that offer their own unique approach to updating and restoring these vehicles. This staggering example of the 1969 Ford Bronco is one such car that has had a frame-off restoration completed in 2017. Reportedly, it only has 70,000 miles on its rebuilt engine. It offers you the advantages of contemporary components and is outfitted with everything you need to go off-road.
GMC and Chevy have been making pickup trucks together for ages. In fact, this stretches way back to the Chevy Task Force series and beyond. When the popular Chevy C/K series debuted in 1960, naturally, GMC would get its own variants. The GMC 1000 was the half-ton variant, equivalent to a Chevy C10 or K10. In terms of mechanicals and styling, the models were basically indistinguishable except for badging, unlike today, where the Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra have some visual differences. However, this 1966 GMC 1000 Fleetside is definitely a stand-out sort, because it’s a restomod. Packing a potent engine and some neat creature comforts, you could be the next lucky owner of this beauty. But you’d better act fast!
