1977 Chevrolet C20 Scottsdale Camper Special

Description

OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE

The third-generation General Motors C/K trucks featured modern, squared-off styling outside and a relatively car-like interior. Updates to the Chevy range for 1977 included a new grille design outside as well as larger, more luxurious door panels inside.

The optional Camper Special package — available on C20 and C30 versions — increased payload capacity via uprated springs, shocks, and sway bars so that the trucks could better handle slide-in campers.

This 1977 C20 is a rear-wheel-drive, regular-cab, extended-bed model finished in gray with a burgundy center section. Its red interior features vinyl seating, and it retains a Delco AM radio. Power comes from an Edelbrock carbureted 350ci V8 paired with a Muncie 4-speed manual transmission, and the truck features the Camper Special package.

The truck is said to have been stored for more than a decade prior to the seller's acquisition. Refurbishment work following storage is said to have included replacement of the carburetor and intake manifold, fuel system components, the heater, and more as described below.

This 1977 Chevy C20 Scottsdale is now offered at no reserve with a clean Washington State title in the seller's name.

Additional Information

From the seller, "I bought this truck with intentions to restore, as I always loved the ’70’s square body trucks, and it is very difficult to find one that is in fairly good restorable condition, and can actually be used as a work truck while working on it. It runs very well, and I believe the SM465 4 speed transmission (with “granny” low) was always one of Chevrlolet’s best transmissions, I drove one for a long time back in 1978 and 1979 to work, which was 65 miles each way.

This truck ran down the road straight, brakes did not pull left or right, seemed to me like a good truck to start with that would meet my needs and desires without costing me a fortune to get started. Starts right up. So I bought it. I’m only selling it as, at 78 years old, I realized I don’t have the energy anymore, so decided to see if I can find another square body enthusiast who wants a good truck to start with."
