1986 GMC C1500 454

Description

With its big block power, short bed style, and loaded interior - including A/C - this 1986 GMC C1500 Sierra Classic makes a cool and sporty impression. And as you look at the full package, it shows this is a comfortable classic cruiser with the right features for good any-time driving.

You can't help but be instantly attracted to this truck. Short bed square-body GMCs are red hot right now, and this looks quite clean with good-looking panels. The dark blue metallic is an attractive color that looks almost like black until the sunlight releases a nice deep sea style. You may choose to update the finish if you're looking for a show truck kind of style, and the value price certainly gives your budget the room for improvement. But right now, the overall theme of this pickup is about being stylish while also remaining quite useful. For example, the bright bed rails look cool, and they also are handy when it's time for a lumber run. And the bright diamond plate rear step bumper lets you fit a tow ball. Plus, the wide dual exhaust tips are a nice hint that this one is a powerful all-around cruiser.

The sea of blue continues inside. It's a very stock style where you can tell they gave this the right care and investment on the carpeting, headliner, door panels, and velour seat to keep this feeling inviting. This is loaded with the best features for that era, like power windows, power locks, and a sliding rear window. There are also some well-integrated upgrades like the retro-style AM/FM digital tuner, and the factory air conditioning is blowing cold with R134a refrigerant. You'll love slipping behind the factory steering wheel because it's on a tilt column to give you a commanding view of the wraparound gauge panel and the road ahead.

Under the hood is a mighty 454 cubic-inch V8. The big block looks quite tidy, and it even has good components like an updated radiator. The V8 inhales deeply with a four-barrel carburetor, and it exhales with added power and authority as headers feed the dual exhaust. It's a strong powerhouse for a nice ready-to-work attitude, but there's also a smooth overall feeling of a solid cruiser. That's why you have power steering, power brakes, and a stout but smooth TH400 three-speed automatic transmission.

The GMCs have the appeal of real truck power and versatility, and this one gives you plenty of style and comfort, too. Call today!!!
