The Cheyenne, Crew Cab, Pick-up and Silverado versions listed here show the series' trim levels: Cheyenne as the mid-range and Silverado as the upper trim, each combined with a single or double cab.

The register lists here 5 versions with eight-cylinder engines only, of 5,657 to 7,440 cc, power outputs of 129 to 139 kW, kerb weights of 2,363 to 2,720 kg against a gross vehicle weight of 3,500 kg, lengths of 5,520 to 6,350 mm and widths of 2,000 to 2,100 mm.
The C20 was the middle link between the light C10 and the heavy C30, serving in the US and Canada as a base for pickups, motorhome conversions and light commercial vehicles; competitors were the Ford F-250 and the Dodge D200. A technically near-identical four-wheel-drive version was badged K20. The large-displacement V8 engines meant high towing capacity with comparatively simple technology.
A used-buying check should cover rust on the frame and spring mounts, brake condition given the vehicle's weight, the clutch and transmission, and on Crew Cab versions the bodywork around the rear doors. Parts for the V8 engines and running gear are well supported on the US aftermarket.
