1981 Chevrolet C10 Short Bed

1981 Chevrolet C10 half-ton pickup, two-door cab, built at Chevrolet's St. Louis, MO, assembly plant. Powering the truck is a 350ci V8 and a 3-speed automatic transmission. The truck has been recently repainted black with a red metallic flake, with new window trim, and comes with two wheel/tire sets: a chrome wheel set with chrome center caps, wrapped in Cooper tires, and the other set is pictured. The truck is also equipped with power steering and several aftermarket engine components and sits on a lowered suspension. Known issues disclosed by the current owner: no center caps for the chrome wheel set, an inoperative fuel gauge, a small transmission leak, and a broken glove box. The current owner has held the truck since October 2025 and reports adding approximately 100 miles since purchase. The odometer reads 96,891; the mileage on this truck is TMU (true mileage unknown) due to a Carfax flag of DMV-confirmed "not actual mileage" from 2006.

OVERVIEW

This truck belongs to the third-generation Chevrolet C/K, GM's "Rounded Line" series (colloquially known as the "square-body" generation), produced from 1973 to 1987. It was an all-new design for its generation, engineered with computer and wind-tunnel testing to improve aerodynamics and fuel economy over its predecessor. Today, the third-generation C/K is gaining popularity with millennials and younger buyers, reflecting the square-body's growing appeal among younger collectors. The model is supported today by the C/10 Club, a national owners' community for C10 truck owners with regional chapters across the country.

EXTERIOR

The truck was repainted black with a red metallic flake in April 2026, with new window trim installed. It comes with two wheel and tire sets: a chrome wheel set, currently missing its center caps, and the ones pictured, both fitted with Cooper tires. The vehicle's badging, lights, and brightwork are in matching period-correct style, and the sale includes both sets of tires and rims.

INTERIOR

The interior features a black bench seat with red seat belts. The dashboard and steering wheel retain a factory-style layout, with period trim and instrumentation. The glove box is noted as broken, and the fuel gauge is inoperative. Interior materials and finishes are consistent with the truck's vintage utility orientation.

MECHANICAL

Power is provided by a 350ci V8 mated to a 3-speed automatic transmission powering the rear wheels. A small transmission leak is disclosed by the seller. The truck is equipped with power steering and an aftermarket intake manifold, air cleaner, and valve covers. The seller notes that the truck's suspension has been altered to lower the body.
