The C-10 was part of Chevrolet's pickup truck line from the 1960s to the 1980s.
The "C" stands for "conventional" and refers to the truck's two-wheel-drive system, while the "10" refers to its half-ton payload capacity.
The 1982 model also featured a new synchronized gearing feature on K-30 models.
