First year of the GMT400 series, this 1988 Chevrolet C1500 wears Indigo Blue paint with a subtle metallic finish that reveals purple undertones in different lighting angles. The Tahoe limited/diesel style front bumper gives it a more substantial appearance, while upgraded front and rear lighting updates the classic truck's visibility. Rolling on matching 17" wheels front and rear with 255/50ZR17 tires, the stance fills out the wheel wells nicely. The bed features Rhino liner protection topped with a rubber bed mat and plastic Bushwhacker caps for practical durability.
Tan vinyl bench seating creates a comfortable and durable workspace inside the cab. Fresh upholstery and carpet throughout complement the clear gauges that make monitoring vital information straightforward. Column shifter keeps the cab layout traditional and uncluttered. Air conditioning keeps things comfortable during hot weather, while power steering makes maneuvering effortless. The aftermarket head unit includes AM/FM radio with CD capability, AUX input, and Bluetooth connectivity for modern convenience. Tilt wheel adjusts for optimal driving position.
The 4.3 Liter V6 provides solid power through fuel injection with TBI setup. Edelbrock valve covers and intake manifold dress up the engine bay, while headers improve breathing. Poly engine mount bushings reduce vibration transfer to the cab. 3 Speed Automatic transmission was rebuilt in 2012 according to documentation. Power disc brakes up front handle stopping duties with power assist making pedal effort light. Dual exhaust runs to single then back to dual configuration with FlowMaster mufflers providing a deep tone. Aftermarket steering box improves road feel and response.
