Chevrolet K10 – the four-wheel-drive pick-ups of the C/K line with Silverado, Cheyenne Super and Custom Deluxe: V8 engines from 4.9 to 6.6 litres, around 183 kW, around 5.2 m in length
Chevrolet K10 denotes the four-wheel-drive version – General Motors used the K prefix for 4x4, C for two-wheel drive – of the classic C/K pick-up line, built from 1960 into the 1990s across several generations. The models gathered here come mainly from the third generation, known as the "Square Body" (1973–1987), with trim levels such as Silverado (top trim), Cheyenne Super and Custom Deluxe, plus the classic Stepside bed with external fenders.

The register lists here 8 versions with around 183 kW from eight-cylinder engines of 4,903 to 6,600 cm³, unladen weights from 1,800 to 2,776 kg, gross weights from 2,540 to 3,500 kg, a length of around 5.2 m and widths from 2,000 to 2,150 mm.
For decades the K10 was one of the best-selling pick-ups in North America and, with its sturdy leaf-spring solid-axle underpinnings and small-block V8 engines, shaped the market for work and off-road pick-ups; today it is a sought-after collector vehicle. Numbers-matching examples with factory air conditioning and the top Silverado trim command the strongest interest among collectors today.
On used examples, check the frame and bed for rust (the classic weak point), the carburettor and ignition on unrestored trucks, the transfer case and axles, the brakes, often upgraded to front discs, and the condition of body seals and chrome trim; parts run through the extensive US classic-truck parts market.
