Super Sport: 1990 Chevrolet 454 SS

Trucks are a popular item right now. The will continue to be that way for quite some time. Trucks from the late 80’s early 90’s are slowly trending upwards. If you are interested in that marketing, you might want to get your hands on this 1990 Chevy C/K 1500 SS 454, that has 91,000 miles and is located in Cranston, Rhode Island. The current buy it now price is $12,500 with the ability to make an offer on eBay.

Residing under the hood is a hefty 454 cubic inch V8. That is connected to a 3-speed automatic transmission. All mechanical components are said to be original except for the tires and exhaust. Those are said to have 500 miles on them. It has a bed liner. There is a minor oil leak and the air conditioning needs re-charged or converted. Also listed is the fact that it has been painted within the last five years.

Inside is a pair of bucket seats. Options available on the truck are power windows and locks. If a retro sound is your thing, it comes with a cassette player that includes an equalizer. The listing also takes time to note that the shift selector has overdrive selection that has replaced the original. A sliding rear window is on the truck as well. The seller will include new front drop spindles with the purchase of the truck.

The truck does have a clean title. As time progresses, these trucks will only go up in price. This is a clean example of a prime performance truck. A father to today’s performance trucks. If you want to get in on a hot market, with a fast yet practical vehicle, this is it. For all that has been done to it, you can be the judge if the price is worth it or not. One thing is for sure though. The heartbeat of America is a truck.

    C1500 = 2WD 1/2 ton. K1500 = 4WD 1/2 ton. C/K 1500 = confuson.

      Right on. eBay lists them as C/K because that’s the category, full-sized Chevy 2WD and 4WD. A car enthusiast site should know better . . .

    It needs a 4L80E or a gear vendor OD added to the TH400 to go along with the OD selector…If I were in the market, I would show up with $10k in cash and see what happened…

    Just looks like another short box with wrong size tires on it. You want top dollar on a 91k mile truck? Pay attention to the details.

    Regardless of what’s under the hood, these were very sharp looking trucks when new. Although the 454 didn’t measure up to its legacy, it’s still a cool feature and could certainly be coaxed into putting out more power. I think the asking price is a bit optimistic for the condition, but otherwise would be a good one to buy and refresh.
