"Kate" - 1981 Chevrolet Short Fleet

The 1981 Chevrolet Short Fleet, part of the renowned C/K series, is a durable and versatile full-size pickup. The "Short Fleet" features a 6.5-foot bed with a smooth, uninterrupted Fleet Side design, offering both style and utility. 

This truck combines classic design with modern upgrades, making it a favorite among collectors and enthusiasts. A newly installed retro radio and PowerBass S-series shallow speakers deliver modern sound while maintaining the truck’s original aesthetic. The 6x9" speakers provide clear, powerful audio performance with 50W RMS.  

Interior updates include a full detail, re-dyed A & B pillars, sun visor, and a new headliner, restoring the original red interior while giving it a polished, refreshed look. The exterior has been enhanced with a stage 2 polish and ceramic coating, ensuring a long-lasting shine and superior protection. This unit is a vehicle you won't want to miss out on for both its nostalgic appeal and unique presence on the road. 

Additional Notes:
Although the odometer currently shows 68,616, it’s important to note that this reading is based on a 5-digit odometer, which may have rolled over. Moreover, many core systems — including paintwork and powertrain components — have less than 300 km of use since the rebuild. With extensive restoration and replacement of key parts, the vehicle is effectively refreshed, making the odometer reading less representative of its actual condition.
