FOR SALE:
1979 Chevrolet Custom Deluxe K10
Original K10, four wheel drive, short bed (117.5 inch wheelbase)
The truck has 65,267 ACTUAL and ORIGINAL miles.
The truck is powered by the original 350 cubic-inch V8 and the original automatic transmission.
The four wheel drive system functions as it should with no issues.
The truck still wears the original Sante Fe Tan exterior finish. The interior of the truck boasts the original Camel vinyl bench seat and the rubber floor covering.
The truck rolls smoothly on the original wheels that are wrapped in Mastercraft Courser HTR tires. The tires have a good amount of tread life remaining.
The truck is equipped with numerous options from new, including cigarette lighter, painted rear step bumper, AM radio, and various gauges. Please see the picture of the Service Parts Identification sticker for further information on the original equipment.
The truck is also equipped with a functional under-dash air conditioning system. Based on what I know, this system was installed by the dealer shortly after the truck was purchased new.
This is a one owner truck.
As you can see, the truck has some rust and some panels have been affected worse than others. Fortunately, the undercarriage remains solid. I have included a considerable number of pictures that will allow you to assess the truck's condition.
The truck runs, rides, and drives great. The truck is reliable provider of worry-free utility. This truck is a great candidate for a restoration. As you likely know, these trucks are becoming increasingly harder to find. This truck has always been maintained appropriately and the majority of the maintenance efforts are documented with hand-written notes.
The truck carries a clean and clear title that is ready for transfer.
Interested parties are welcomed to have the truck inspected but all inspections must be completed before the end of the auction. If you have questions or uncertainties about the truck or the purchase process, please contact me with those questions or uncertainties before bidding. I can be reached with a call or a text at (270) 748-1882. If I do not answer, please leave a message and I will return your call as soon as possible.

The truck nor the title will leave my possession until the full purchase price amount has been received in a certified payment form. I prefer cash or a wire-transfer but I will accept a cashier's check if you do not have access to the previous payment forms. A cashier's check is subject to a 7-day clearance period (my bank's policy, not mine). If you choose to ship the truck, I will accommodate any shipping arrangements that you may make, but the purchaser will remain financially responsible for the entire shipping process.

THE FULL PURCHASE AMOUNT MUST BE RECEIVED BY ME WITHIN 4 DAYS (96 HOURS) OF THE AUCTION END. MY RECENT EXPERIENCES WITH NON-PAYING BIDDERS FORCES ME TO INTEGRATE THIS REQUIREMENT INTO MY LISTING.
