Chevrolet Fleetside – register collection of the smooth-sided bed: C and K series up to the Silverado 2500, 132 to 200 hp, six- and eight-cylinder engines of 3.2 to 6.5 litres, gross weights up to 4,990 kg
Fleetside denotes the smooth-sided pickup bed that Chevrolet introduced in 1958 as an alternative to the external-fender Stepside form; this register gathers pickups with Fleetside bodywork from the classic C/K series to the modern Silverado 2500. In the chassis codes, C stands for rear-wheel-drive models and K for four-wheel-drive versions, the following digit group for the payload class; the Diesel Pick Up suffix marks the diesel-engined variants.

The register lists 11 versions with 97 to 147 kW from six- and eight-cylinder engines of 3,220 to 6,500 cc. Kerb weights range from 2,120 to 2,940 kg, gross vehicle weights from 3,900 to 4,990 kg. Lengths run from 5,450 to 8,600 mm, widths from 1,930 to 2,390 mm.
As a bed style, Fleetside shaped the image of the North American pickup for decades and stood in direct competition with the Ford F-Series Styleside and the Dodge Sweptline; the heavy four-wheel-drive and diesel variants also served as a base for motorhome and utility bodies.
On a used example, checks should cover corrosion on the load bed, frame and fenders, the condition of the clutch and automatic or manual gearbox, on four-wheel-drive versions the transfer case and axle differentials, and on the diesel engine the condition of the injection pump and turbocharger; spare parts are readily available through GM's dense network in North America.
