Driving a custom pickup isn’t for everybody. You’ll find both positives and negatives if you go searching, but if the thought of owning such a vehicle pleases you, then you’re probably the type of person who loves having a utility vehicle, one that’s both capable and flashy, kind of like your personality, maybe?
Alright, you know what, let’s skip the Freudian stuff and focus more on the technical aspects of this truck, which is a 1991 Chevy 1500 – from a time before the Silverado nameplate became a standalone moniker.

Currently up for grabs through Classic Cars of Sarasota, the asking price for this “surprisingly orange” Chevy pickup is $26,900. Whether that’s too little or too much, we’ll leave it up to you to decide. However, bear in mind that you wouldn’t be buying just any old truck, but one that’s been fully customized both inside and out, and is now powered by a 350ci 4-bolt crate V8 unit, which according to the seller also produces 350 hp.

Everything is then sent to the rear wheels with the aid of a three-speed 400 Turbo automatic gearbox, which is usually designed for higher-capacity big-block engines, but should work just fine here as well, especially if the engine has plenty of peak torque (a conclusive number was not specified in the ad).

Now, there’s obviously way more to this truck than just performance. From the Candy Tangerine exterior to the 20-inch wheels with Wilwood disc brakes, remote door openers, rear air ride suspension, bumper-mounted rear lights, Quicksilver shift kit and custom interior with 6-way adjustable Jaguar seats, it’s going to be hard running out of things to brag about while showing this thing off to your friends.

Other highlights include the custom silver dash with Dakota gauges, custom steering wheel, new door panels, custom side steps and an 8-speaker sound system. The only thing we’re not so sure about is that large rear wing. The truck would look way better without it, don’t you think?
