81 Chevy C30 4 door 1 ton dually

1981 Chevrolet C/K Pickup 3500 Silverado 3X3 camper special Description

Here is the square body Chevy you have been looking for! This truck has been in my family sense new. It was originally a 4 speed manual but my uncle swapped the manual for a turbo 400. It spent its whole life on the west coast, never seen salt! Runs and drives great. I just drove it from southern Oregon to Wisconsin last week pulling a trailer. It cost me a fortune in gas but drove great! I originally planned on doing a Duramax/Allison conversation but after further research I have decided it’s over my head. Before I made the trip I replaced the alternator, power steering pump, heater hose, headlight bulbs and switch. I don’t know what’s been done to the engine but it has an Edelbrock 625 carborateor and aftermarket electronic ignition. It starts right up, makes good power and doesn’t burn oil. Unfortunately it does leak oil, front main seal I think. The body is in decent shape. Front right fender has small dent and there is a tiny bit of surface rust on the rockers and under doors. The interior is original and kinda ruff. This truck is perfect to restore.
