A possible of mogrel? I think this is K-Series due to the front locking hub at the wheel  |

If one enlarges the first thumbnail..you see a SILVERADO nameplate... |

K-10 (if a ½-ton model) should be used as model name, not as model code. If any doubt about the "ton rating", the generic model name for it should be K-Series, or C/K-Series if also unsure of the 4WD (but this pickup has a really high clearance). @ rjluna2 (or anyone who wants to answer .gif ";)") ): what is a mogrel? |

@ eLMeR : " mongrel " m'a donné " batard " comme traduction. il doit avoir été remonté avec des pieces provenant d'un peu partout Je crois que c'est ce qu'il a voulu écrire mais le "n" n'a pas fonctionné |

in those years, Silverado was a trim level, no ? |

rjluna2 is correct on the front 4x4 hub. K Series |

I think the closest thing I can find for the french word: métis https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/mongrel |

Thanks to both of you for the explanation. The missing "n" was indeed misleading. For these vehicle, we could also say "the Frankenstein's creature" (@ rjluna2: métis is a moderate word, while bâtard, especially when used about people, may have negative connotations and be seen as an insult. Do mongrel has this 2 meaning?) @ Baube: the Silverado trim level was indeed unveiled with the 1975 model year (as the top of trim levels), and became a model name only with the 1999 GMT800 model. The pickup of this page being at least a 1973-87 model (1981-87 if the fender is the one of its origins...), Silverado should only appear as a complement. The way it already does .gif ":)") ____ Edit: I changed the 1988 ending model year into 1987, which is the accurate one. These vehicles are too recent for me, I mix the years  -- Last edit: 2015-06-29 01:40:47 |

I can point out that the side mirror is a 1980+ style, but since the door doesn't look original, it doesn't help much. |

thanks for the precisions, didn't knew that trim was that old |

Not only is the door not original, the fender with the Silverado badge isn't original. That means there's a good possibility that this isn't even a Silverado trim truck. |

Based on the info we have, it's a 1981-1987 K-Series. Or do we agree it's a 1/2-ton K-10? |
