Produced between 1959 and 2002 in the United States, the C/K series of trucks from General Motors was sold by Chevrolet and GMC as pickup trucks, chassis-cab, and medium-duty models. They also served as the baseline for the company's full-size SUVs, of course.
With decades of manufacturing behind them, the four generations have had a massive financial and cultural impact on the American lifestyle, easily amassing a cult following with clubs, brand finds, nicknames, restomods, and modifications. As such, sometimes it's hard to catch an original truck, especially as years have passed by since the introduction of the Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra successors.
Luckily, the OBS – Old or Original Body Style – as the fourth generation models have come to be fondly remembered by enthusiasts, is actually not that old as production took place from 1988 to 2002 on the GMT400 platform. Slightly smaller than the 'Square Body' predecessor, the OBS nevertheless increased cabin space, and the C/K (two or four-wheel drive) branding became exclusive to Chevrolet as GMC pickups switched to the modern Sierra name in advance.
Now, PC Classic Cars, a Sherman, Texas-based old-school dealership, has an interesting proposal for the enthusiasts of the General Motors C/K pickup truck series – this is a 1995 Chevrolet K1500 equipped with the 5.7-liter V8 engine and the classic 4L80E automatic transmission. Allegedly, according to the dealer's description, we are dealing with a one-owner example from new, and the odometer readout of 38,454 is for actual miles, not of the "actual mileage cannot be confirmed" variety.
Additional details include the fact that just about everything is stock on this OBS pickup truck, from the exhaust setup to the original "WA8624" White exterior paint and "13l" Gray interior. The vehicle also comes with powered steering and disc brakes, mechanical 4WD with automatic locking hubs, factory AC system ("blows cold" according to the dealer's description), plus powered windows, door locks, mirrors, and cruise control.
The dealership says there's a clean Carfax report, the original window sticker, original sales paperwork, and other miscellaneous receipts, plus a GM bedliner and 16-inch wheels shod in 265/75 tires. If you craved a low-mileage, one-owner Chevrolet K1500 pickup truck for a long time and think this one looks too good to be true, the stark reality is that – of course – there's a catch. Luckily, it's not a bad one – just that we don't know the asking price for this ride because the dealership says 'pending' where the quotation was supposed to be.
So, if you were given full liberty to negotiate the deal, how much would you offer to the dealership to buy this 1995 Chevy K1500 considering its age, owner status, originality, and mileage?
