"1987 Chevrolet C30 Custom Deluxe Dually Long Bed Pickup
""The Chevrolet C30 was a variant of the 3rd Gen C/K that was introduced for the 1973 model year. The C30, which was a 1 ton, rear wheel drive pickup truck, was offered with a wide range of engine options. These engines included inline six, V6, and V8 units whose power ranged from 105hp to 230hp, with drive sent to the rear wheels through manual or automatic transmissions. Starting in 1987, Chevrolet changed the name of the C30 to the R30, in order to avoid any confusion with the forthcoming Fourth Generation Chevrolet C/K. Production of the 3rd Gen C30 lasted until 1991."" Thx classic.com
For consignment, a 1987 C30 Custom Deluxe dually long bed pickup with a title verified 41,972 actual miles. This one retired from farm work early and then was restored by a previous owner.
Exterior
A red pickup truck with polished wheels, cab lights, and dual exhaust tips out back? Count us in! Who doesn't have a red pickup on their wish list? Anyway, this is officially two stage Bright Red which looks fresh. Dings in the bed, (and other imperfections in the paint, see below), tell a different story but overall it's a great looking truck with LT rated tires that have a mid 2020 date code all around. Last of the square body design means a handsome, vertical grille with lots of right angles and a wrap around chrome bumper. In back, a steel plate tops the bumper for traction, and a pair of chrome tips emerge to spice things up. Imperfections include some chips, inclusions, a ding in the rocker panel and cab, some orange peel, and some scratches. Overall, paint, body, and metalwork are very nice.
Interior
Black plastic door cards fill the red painted inner doors and are in great shape while the black vinyl bench inside is nearly perfect. Refreshingly simple, the dash from the basic steering wheel forward represents a different era in interior design and utility. Black plastic is home to gauges which are delineated by painted silver edges, the black faces interrupted only by the orange needles. No radio here but you do get a vent lever panel and a storage cubby. Down below, a rubberized floor covering surrounds the shifter rising from the transmission tunnel, all in great shape and clean. Red paint adorns the ceiling and a solid rear window gives you a view of the bed.
Drivetrain
Also fantastically clean is the engine bay where we find the 350ci V8, with a 4-barrel carburetor and a horsepower rating of 160. It's mated to a 4-speed manual which includes three speeds and a creeper gear. Power is routed to the Dana 70 in back with 4.10 gears. Power brakes and power steering are on board.
Undercarriage
Clean conditions underneath and dual exhaust that run through glasspack style mufflers on their way to the chrome tipped exit. Power brakes are divided as disc up front and drum in the rear and suspension is the standard coil spring/leaf spring front/rear configuration.
Drive-Ability
Simple, clean, and comfortable, the 350 puts out good power and bellows nicely under throttle. Simplicity normally breeds functionality and that's the case here where everything works as it should. Our consignor notes that this former two gas tank truck now has just one, on the driver's side. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.
This former farmer has gone fancy on us! With some sharp paint and spotless interior, we're hesitating to get back into the fields, but it's certainly capable if that's the direction you want to take it. But this bright red unit seems more at home on a show field than a plow field!
