Exterior
Known as the rounded line as tagged by GM, the lines appear to be more square and rectangle than anything else. This includes a rectangular blacked out chrome trimmed grille with square headlights stacked above square maker lights all in square bezel panels and a shiny bumper below. Straight bright red fresh steel wraps all sides and the bed, and all support well minded gaps. Some thin stainless trimmings finish off the wheel wells and straight clean body lines and High Sierra 2500 trimmings and badges dress up the slab steel sides. Black and shiny stainless trimmings surround the glass and for a little extra bling the drip rails are highlighted with shiny stainless trimming. The bed is covered with a black plastic drop in liner and a Bully net gate spans the gap where the original tailgate once was. 15-inch drilled and polished Mickey Thompson aluminum wheels are wrapped by like new 37x14.00R15LT Mickey Thompson all-weather deep tread tires.
Interior
Black molded vinyl buttons up the new door panels and these have a nicely contrasting brushed aluminum insert that holds the door pull and vie for space against padded vinyl armrests and a 3d vertical ribbed insert. This panel is trimmed with a shiny crank for the window and sits within the beautiful red surround of the door shell. Inside is a freshly recovered black vinyl bench seat with smooth black vinyl bolsters on the sides and stitched tuck and roll cushions that make up the seating. The original dash is intact and looking clean with a multitude of inset round gauges within a brushed aluminum panel and a black plastic band is below and holds the headlight pull, a few toggles and a modern AM/FM/Cassette stereo. The new dash top is clean and shows no cracking or distortions and the lower is all steel in body matching red. Above is a red steel formed headliner, and on the floors is clean medium pile black carpet with the transfer case shifter in the middle within its black housing.
Drivetrain
A consignor stated rebuilt and bored .030 over 396ci V8 is topped with a single Edelbrock 4-barrel carburetor and Edelbrock aluminum intake manifold. A rebuilt Jasper TH400 3-speed automatic transmission is bolted to the back of this big mill. This setup throws power rearward and forward via the transfer case to 3.07 geared axles, 10 bolt in the front and 14 bolt in the rear. The entire engine bay looks original and great with its chrome bolt ons and supple hoses.
Undercarriage
Not to be outdone by the topside, the undercarriage appears to have never seen bad weather, and is also fully restored. Straight rust-free steel for the flooring and frame is protected with a nice application of black paint and the cab floors and corners remain rust free. Providing the truck-like ride are leaf springs both fore and aft and power disc brakes are on front, and power drums for the rear. A pair of shiny headers snake their way down from the mill and join up with glasspack equipped dual exhaust sans catalytic converters with dual tips under the rear bumper.
Drive-Ability
A quick fire up and the engine came to life! This High Sierra drove just like a truck should. Adequate acceleration, good braking and it handled all our test track had to offer. All mechanicals were working save for the USB port on the radio, and the interior proved to be visually appealing and comfortable thanks in part to it being redone.
A fine overall restoration job and showing near showroom for the exterior and interior. The well running rebuilt engine and the engine bay is simply...well fabulous! I could use my pickup line right now, but I digress, and will just say a classic truck will not get any better in our Hallowed Halls than this baby. Ready to haul anything, even some serious ass!
