Offered for sale in Kansas, this 1987 Chevrolet R10 Silverado has remained in the same family since it was purchased new by the seller's grandfather in Newton, Kansas. For decades, it lived a sheltered life, spending most of its time tucked away in a garage and making occasional trips to the local golf course. Today, with just 114,000 original miles, it represents a remarkably preserved example of one of Chevrolet's most iconic truck generations.
What makes this truck especially desirable among Square Body enthusiasts is its model year. 1987 marked the final year of Square Body production and the only year Chevrolet offered factory fuel injection in these trucks. Under the hood is the original fuel-injected 305 V8 paired with an automatic transmission, combining classic styling with improved drivability and reliability over earlier carbureted examples.
- One-Year-Only Appeal: For many collectors, 1987 is the sweet spot of Square Body ownership. You get the timeless lines that made these trucks legendary, but with the benefits of electronic fuel injection. This R10 retains the features that made Silverado-trim trucks the top-tier offering of the day, including cruise control, air conditioning, heat, and dual 13-gallon fuel tanks. The truck has spent its life as a cherished family vehicle rather than a workhorse, helping explain its remarkably straight, rust-free condition.
- Tasteful Upgrades: While largely true to its original character, this Silverado benefits from several thoughtful upgrades that enhance the driving experience without detracting from its vintage appeal. A 2-inch body lift and 33-inch tires give the truck a more commanding stance, while a custom grille and exhaust add a bit of personality. Inside, the factory cabin has been updated with a Retrosound head unit featuring Bluetooth and USB connectivity, complemented by a Rockford Fosgate amplifier, 10-inch subwoofer, and 6x9 speakers. The result is a classic Square Body that can comfortably handle modern road trips.
- Fresh Presentation: The truck wears a relatively recent repaint in its original factory color and presents exceptionally well. According to the seller, it remains rust-free and "straight as an arrow"—high praise for any nearly 40-year-old pickup. The accompanying CARFAX shows long-term ownership history, recent servicing, and only a single minor front-end damage report from 2016. No structural damage or title issues are reported.
Finding a Square Body is easy. Finding one that's remained in the same family since new, spent most of its life garage-kept, retains its original fuel-injected drivetrain, and remains rust-free is considerably harder. This 1987 R10 Silverado offers exactly the combination of provenance, originality, and usability that continues to make Square Bodies one of the hottest segments in the classic truck market.
