GMC C-10 1982 Description

Trucks are the real deal today, ervicing the hobby with style, erformance, nd collectability like never before. If it's affordable fun you're looking for, ou'll be hard-pressed to do better than this 1982 GMC stepside pickup that brings great looks and eminent practicality with it.The cool icy blue paint job definitely makes this pickup stand out in a crowd, nd it has a wonderful old school look thanks to the stepside bed and its associated flared fenders. That bed makes it look older than it is, ut details like the billet grille and square headlights bring it right back up to date. There's a good amount of time invested in making it look this good, nd while the work was done a while ago, t still looks flashy and gets a lot of attention out on the road. Finding a GMC version of the stepside pickup is none too easy, nd it still wears its correct GMC tailgate and side badges. The chrome bumpers are in excellent shape, ith a wrap-around rear unit that gives it a nicely finished look that's still highly functional with a receiver hitch underneath. The bed was refinished with new oak planks and stainless rub strips, iving it an old-fashioned look that really dresses it up in a big way.The interior matches the exterior's lightly revised looks with a combination of original gear and aftermarket upgrades that enhance the driving experience. A new seat cover on the front bench has a two-tone look that looks racy and you'll find fresh black carpets on the floor. In fact, lmost all the soft parts are new, ncluding the dash pad, oor panels, nd even the visors overhead. The dashboard is pretty original, urrounding a complete set of factory gauges and it's loaded with options, ike A/C and cruise control, aking this GMC is a pleasure to drive under just about any circumstances, lthough you'll save it for special occasions. The original AM/FM radio is still in the dash, nd for those days where it's comfortable enough for windows-down cruising, he sliding rear window will make things very comfortable inside. The reason full-sized pickups remain popular after all these years is that they offer what is essentially the muscle car formula: big V8 up front, ear wheel drive, nd rugged mechanicals that will easily take the abuse of a few full-throttle runs. This GMC packs a 350 cubic inch V8 topped by an Edelbrock carburetor and Holley intake manifold, ut nothing radical so it's an easy cruiser. Beyond a chrome air cleaner and some bright yellow plug wires, t isn't really detailed for show, ut that's not really the point here. Instead, t's as reliable as a cinder block, as great torque to make it entertaining to drive, nd with a 700R4 4-speed automatic, t's even reasonably thrifty on the highway. The dual exhaust sounds awesome, nother link to the muscle car era, nd the suspension sits just right, ot too low and not towering over the pavement. Of course, hose flashy Torque Thrust-style wheels certainly help, specially when wrapped in fat Sumitomo performance radials.Fun, ffordable, nd handsome, ickups like this are a great way to get into the car hobby without a major investment, nd it might even make you forget muscle cars.
