The Chevrolet C/K is a series of trucks manufactured by the Chevrolet division of General Motors. The third generation of the C/K, styled by Bill Mitchell, was introduced in 1971 and was known as the Rounded Line series. This generation of C/K introduced a four door cab configuration as well as trim levels, including the Cheyenne, Scottsdale and Silverado trims. The vehicle underwent a major facelift in 1981 and a more subtle restyling in 1983, receiving revised grilles and minor changes in the front fascia. The third generation C/K was discontinued in 1991, although it was superseded midway through 1988 with a new generation of C/K truck.

This casting is a depiction of a heavily modified 1983 Silverado with a custom billet style grille, shaved door handles, lowered ride height and an exposed rear drivetrain. It is one of Hot Wheels's most popular models in the modern day. Jun Imai's initials can be seen cast into the base.

2008 Modern Classics (RARE)

The Modern Classics ’83 Silverado in the yellow/antifreeze color was quite an anomaly. The cars in the series were originally planned to each have several colors. Unfortunately none received releases in more than two colors, while about a third had one color released. The Silverado was believed to only have one color released, but a fateful eBay auction and one lucky bidder obtained what is likely to be the ’83 Silverado Holy Grail: yellow-antifreeze. The auction (won by HWC member Jolmstea) contained numerous desirable premium line releases from around 2008 through 2011. Many were believed to be FEPs. All had been seen before, except that yellow-antifreeze ’83 Silverado. While an FEP had been shown in a collector magazine back in 2008, no one had seen (well, fessed up to it) one in a collector’s hand. It is the only one known to be among a collector.
