Super nice truck. Amazing that 38-year old paint still shines.

Really nice K/30, and a unique year too. Glad it went to a good home.

Re: 1980 K/30 with 9,434 miles
Very very nice! I don't think the blue interior in dark grey truck is odd at all. What I find odd is not only is the truck a Silverado with radio delete, they ordered the in-windshield antenna. It was pretty uncommon to have a loaded Silverado with 4spd back then, too. The sport mirrors are standard equipment, not an option.

Re: 1980 K/30 with 9,434 miles
The original paint really does shine good. I’ll take a picture of the inside of the bed before I wax it, it’s pretty dang nice and hasn’t ever been waxed.

sadly the rust belt had gotten to her bad . but the guy hardly ever used 4wd . i took the t-case and used its guts to build a 32 spline case and the syncro teeth were all almost like brand new . the axles went under a friends blazer . seats & console went to alaska .

Very nice and all original, just plain awesome! Original trucks are getting very scarce let alone one with low miles.

Re: 1980 K/30 with 9,434 miles
Beautiful truck! I have an 80 k30 I am going to restore. Mine is equipped very similarly to this truck. Mine has dual wheels though. I would love to see some more detailed pics of the engine bay because mine was a 350, but it was replaced with a 454. My k30 even has the engine oil cooler also!
